| 0:00.0 | This episode of the High Performance Podcast is sponsored by Get Into Teaching. |
| 0:04.4 | And you know what, we've worked with Get Into Teaching now for the last couple of years |
| 0:08.0 | because we know that so many of you teachers listen to this podcast and we love that and we respect |
| 0:13.4 | the amazing work you do and we stand alongside you as you inspire the next generation. |
| 0:18.0 | And I was thinking, if I was a teacher, what would I teach and how would I teach it? |
| 0:23.6 | And I've actually been inspired by a teacher called Mr. Weeks who reaches out to us regularly |
| 0:30.2 | to tell us that he's created High Performance Lunchtime at his school. So what he does, he gets a |
| 0:34.4 | bunch of kids together to host their own podcast, they invite a guest in and they talk about all |
| 0:39.7 | things, high performance and interview the guest, they do exactly what Damien and myself do on this |
| 0:44.3 | podcast. I would also make sure that I definitely include non-negotiables in my teaching because I |
| 0:50.3 | think that non-negotiables are a thing that children can really simply understand, things that you |

| 1:00.5 | to don't list. And the reason why I love thinking about this is that, you know, I come from a family |
| 1:05.0 | of teachers, my mum was a teacher, my sister-in-law and brother-in-law are teachers, my mother-in-law |
| 1:09.3 | and father-in-law are teachers. And the truth is that every lesson shapes a life and my mum and my |
| 1:15.5 | mother-in-law and father-in-law, they're creative, dynamic, inspiring people and that is what |
| 1:20.7 | teaching is. So again, thank you to all the teachers who listen to this podcast, but if you are |
| 1:25.2 | listening to this and you want a dynamic, creative, amazing life where you hope to inspire the next |
| 1:31.3 | generation and you're not a teacher, then think about it. Search Get Into Teaching Now. |
| 1:38.3 | This is an advertisement from BetterHelp Therapy Online, they have over a thousand therapists |
| 1:43.7 | in the UK already providing access to mental health support with expertise in a wide variety |
| 1:51.3 | of mental health challenges. And I've been there. I have had mental health support, I've had therapy. |
