"We’re all going to fail. Spoiler alert.
It’s how we engage with failure that’s important. Ask yourself: what can I learn from this? How can I use this knowledge?"
Sam Moinet is a former History teacher and the founder of 'Student Breakthrough'. As an international speaker and coach, his aim is to transform emotional support for young people and create lasting change for future generations.

- What he did to help them, whilst still teaching;
- And ultimately why he left and set up his own coaching program for children and young people leading the revolution in student well-being";
