The unfortunate reality is that today's kids are more likely to be diminished through bullying and self-depletion, to consider and attempt suicide, and to choose criminal behaviors that lead to prison.

Bullying happens to be a dangerous culprit. It not only can lead to suicide as a consideration, but bullying has been well documented over the last decade to be connected with eventual time being served in prison for bullies and victims of bullies.

Worse, related to suicide, the youngest age on record of a child considering or attempting suicide dropped to age 4 from age 10 over the last 10 plus years. Kids are hurting bad and need some serious help.

Hear what Kentwood Preparatory School in Lake Worth, Florida suggests will help kids. "Encouragement is one of the most powerful tools a teacher can use. It is often the key to unlocking untapped potential in children, especially those who have trouble learning. Encouragement can even be the difference between students completing school and giving up on themselves." 

Professor Leo and his teammates agree, especially that other research has shown encouragement to be more effective in transforming kids lives than praise. Conclusion? 

Instead of being anti-problems, let's be pro-solutions.

It's time to be pro-encouragement.

It's time to be pro-value. It's time to be pro-greatness. It's time to be pro-mindset transformation. It's time to be pro-make a difference to empower kids, shape their values, and pave the way for their profound contribution now and in the future. 

So, the 1st ever Pro-Encouragement Initiative has been created and you are in an honored position to be part of the inaugural launch.

While working with an international prison program, Professor Leo discovered not only how powerful encouragement is to influence life transformation. He learned from incarcerated program participants how different choices and decisions would have been for them if they had the encouragement they had recently received when they were kids. Almost 100% of them say that they would not be in prison.

With this insight and the awareness of the condition that the minds of kids are in today, something had to be done. Transform Kids minds was created.

What is Transform Kids Minds?

It is an effort created by Professor Leo, who is also a speaker and author, along with his teammates (some of his students) to help kids develop strong mindsets to protect themselves against bullies, prevent suicide, and stay out of prison.

It is the 1st ever Pro-Encouragement Initiative to go into elementary schools as well as the first to use a kids book as a tool for people and businesses to become kid encouragers in an amazing way. 

Here is how it is happening...

During the Fall 2024 semester, kids at 100 elementary schools in the Houston area will be inspired to discover their profound worth through a 3 layer proprietary method:

1) Energize Kids - Deliver an exciting reading of Lion, Lion...Roar, Roar, the kids book authored by Professor Leo (listen below)

2) Train Kids - Give the kids positive self talk through The 5 Greatness Sayings talk connected with the Lion, Lion...Roar, Roar book (shown below)

3) Encourage Kids - Build the kids up with encouragement expression from people and businesses around the world
