In this episode of Teacher Show Me the World, I sit down with Iuri Melo, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, author, and co-founder of SchoolPulse, a nationwide program that helps students, parents, and educators strengthen their mental and emotional well-being through daily encouragement, optimism, and practical mindset tools.What makes Iuri’s approach so unique is how he brings learning outside the classroom. Through Adventure-Based Therapy, he uses real-world challenges—like those found in nature, teamwork, and personal goal-setting—to help students build confidence, resilience, and self-awareness. Much like travel, these experiences remind us that growth often happens when we step beyond our comfort zones.We talk about the power of connection, how to support students through life’s struggles, and how simple, consistent messages of hope can truly change school culture.You’ll hear:How Iuri turned tragedy into purpose through the creation of SchoolPulseWhat Adventure-Based Therapy looks like and why it worksStrategies for helping students (and teachers) strengthen emotional resilienceWhy meaningful experiences beyond the classroom—like travel or adventure—are vital for student growthHow a few kind words can change the course of a student’s day, or even their lifeIuri’s mission to “bless the human family” resonates deeply with educators who believe learning extends far beyond the walls of a classroom. His work is a reminder that when we nurture curiosity, courage, and compassion, we’re helping students see their world—and themselves—differently.📘 Learn more about Iuri Melo:SchoolPulse – Student Support ServiceBooks: Know Thy Selfie | Mind Over Grey MatterComprehensive Mental Health Resource Page✨ “When we teach students to manage their minds, we give them the power to shape their lives.” — Iuri MeloIf you are looking for additional resources that will help market and build your travel program, be sure to buy The Ultimate Marketing Tool Kit to help grow and expand your world travel program.Looking for more resources?
