    May 28 2025

    🛠️ What if the real key to school improvement isn't another new initiative, but rebuilding trust from the inside out?

    In this compelling episode of Cold-Pressed Conversations, Dr. Jewel White-Williams sits down with Dr. Toby A. Travis, award-winning author of TrustED: The Bridge to School Improvement and a globally recognized expert in educational leadership. Together, they dive deep into the true foundations of lasting school transformation, highlighting why 70% of improvement efforts fail, how trust affects everything from student behavior to staff retention, and what it actually takes to lead a thriving school culture.

    Whether you're a school leader, educator, or community stakeholder, this conversation will challenge how you think about leadership, wellness, and what it means to build a school where trust is more than a buzzword. It’s the foundation.

    ✅ How does Dr. Travis's Trusted Leadership Framework help educational leaders assess and build trust within their schools to improve long-term outcomes?

    ✅ What does Dr. Travis identify as the connection between environmental wellness, implementation success, and the 70% failure rate of school improvement initiatives?

    🏫 Whether you're a school leader, educator, or advocate for better learning environments, this episode unpacks how trust—not trends—is the cornerstone of meaningful and sustainable school improvement.
