In this episode of the Relevant Development Podcast, Juan Alvarado sits down with Amy Brady, founder of Flourish Lab, to flip the script on leadership, behavior, and emotional intelligence in education and afterschool programs.

We tackle big questions like:

• Why do so many organizations cling to outdated “behavior management”?
• What happens when adults don’t work on their own emotional intelligence?
• How childhood experiences shape adult behaviors in the workplace.
• The missing link between staff culture and student success.

This conversation is raw, practical, and eye-opening. Whether you’re a teacher, youth worker, leader, or parent, this episode will challenge how you think about leadership, culture, and the way we truly raise the bar for kids by first raising the bar for ourselves.

👉 Don’t forget to subscribe for more leadership conversations that go beyond theory and into action.

My guest John Carroll is one of the most humble and strategic leaders I have met. His approach to recruitment and retention is unlike anything I have seen. He has to be one of the best in making people feel valued and appreciated before the ink dries on their paperwork AND HE KEEPS IT GOING throughout their employment. Grab a pen and paper and take notes.

City Leadership- City Leadership - Recruit. Develop. Catalyze.
