Amazing news! Re-Story Your Life was just selected by Awareness Festival via FilmFreeway.com!

Just spent a day on the beach-I’ve barely lifted my head as I turned page after page of @jazampawfarr.bsky.social book-Jaz, I’ve heard you speak, used your TED talk in a variety of ways for staff but this book-all I can say is wow! Such a powerful message and an important read for every educator!

What an incredible must read.I couldn't put it down once I started reading @jazampawfarr.bsky.social You are an absolute inspiration! We met many years ago at RefreshEd when you gave a keynote & ran a workshop there. I will take note of so much of your story as a humam being & a school leader.... 🙏

✨ From Milton Keynes to MIAMI! ✨ Our documentary Re-Story Your Life has just been nominated for the Miami Women Film Festival 💖 — our 4th festival nomination this year! When we made this film, it wasn’t about awards.

💪 Results Day Rescue Video 2: How to See Your Worth Beyond Grades Results Day doesn’t just test students — it tests parents too. Watching your child measure themselves against a number on a piece of paper can be hard. www.youtube.com/watch?v=826I...

💪 Results Day Rescue Video 1: How to Bounce Back After Bad Grades If your child didn’t get the grades they hoped for, you might be feeling powerless. You want to make it better, but you’re not sure what to say without making things worse.

I just work up to find my book had been blacklisted! What an honour! Thank you to The British Blacklist I’d love to do an interview with you too!@The British Blacklist

BOOK REVIEW 📚 | Because of You, This is Me When a reader says your book reminded them of their purpose? That’s everything. Huge thanks to Hannah Tyreman for this beautiful reflection. I’m beyond grateful—and full of admiration for the way you show up for others.

Lovely thread - and beautiful insight into the strength and resilience of care-experienced students in higher education. Congratulations!

Thanks to the lovely Lisa Shimmin for this great share which really spoke to me today. Imposter Syndrome often rises when you're levelling up in some way. As my nan would say... Strap yourself in Maureen!

... because a @rupaulsdragcon.bsky.social fan is always appropriate!

When I first got the letter, I thought it was a joke. Standing alone in the kitchen I couldn’t speak, let alone call Ed so I took a photo of it, uploaded it to ChatGPT and asked, “What’s this?” ChatGPT replied: “The University of Hull are offering you an honorary doctorate.

. @jazampawfarr.bsky.social writes brilliantly about "those unspoken, quiet expectations that shape who belongs, who thrives & who gets left behind. If you're a leader ask your team to write down (anonymously) the unspoken rules of your workplace. If you work with young people, ask them..." 1/2

"..what rules nobody ever told them, but everybody seems to follow. Then take a breath, because what you hear might be eye-opening, uncomfortable...and exactly what you need." @jazampawfarr.bsky.social in www.crownhouse.co.uk/because-of-y... @crownhousepub.bsky.social 2/2

"You don't 'escape' a childhood or any form of trauma. It stays with you, even when the circumstances have changed. With help, it is possible to process it & stop the past from haunting your present or impacting your future." @jazampawfarr.bsky.social in www.crownhouse.co.uk/because-of-y... #BOYTIM

I'll be releasing the last set of posts from @jazampawfarr.bsky.social's book: 'Because of You, This is Me' later today. @crownhousepub.bsky.social www.crownhouse.co.uk/because-of-y... Have just read it on holiday in Juan-les-Pins, south of France. Where will you read yours? #BOYTIM

"You don't have to be perfect. You just have to be consistently, authentically present in those small moments." @jazampawfarr.bsky.social in www.crownhouse.co.uk/because-of-y... @crownhousepub.bsky.social

"Everything I am, everything I've achieved, and everything I will go on to create exists because five Everyday Heroes refused to give up on me. Who will exist because of you?" @jazampawfarr.bsky.social: www.crownhouse.co.uk/because-of-y... @crownhousepub.bsky.social #BOYTIM

Thank you. I'm delighted. Many people have fed back to me about #BloodLines and their own experiences of facing cancer, losing a loved one to cancer or being a carer. Both @jazampawfarr.bsky.social book and mine are about going through adversity and life long impact of this. x

#BecauseofYouThisisMe is coming soon! This powerful story is all about human connection, overcoming adversity against the odds, and the power of the everyday heroes in our classrooms ❤️ Pre-order your copy today: buff.ly/vHnTF6T @jazampawfarr.bsky.social & @itlworldwide.bsky.social

Thank you! Can I also shout back about my friend Jaz… you need to buy her book, it’s an absolutely awe inspiring read, gripping, heart wrenching but real, human and full of heart and hope! It’s out soon and pre-order can happen now! I’m sure it’s going to sell out so buy one whilst you can!

So I am in Juan-Les-Pins in Antibes, south of France (see pic 1 below) & I'm reading @jazampawfarr.bsky.social's new book here (pic 2!) Am hoping to start a trend - post a photo of where you're reading #BOYTIM this summer? jazampawfarr.com/because-of-y...

Excellent! I finished it today, & will be posting snippets from it on social media over the course of the next week. Hope you find it as interesting and powerful as I did, Melody. @jazampawfarr.bsky.social

"This book celebrates the five Everyday Heroes (& a cast of accidental saviours) who reached into the darkness & pulled me towards the light through seemingly small but transformative actions." @jazampawfarr.bsky.social: www.crownhouse.co.uk/because-of-y... @crownhousepub.bsky.social #BOYTIM

"If you lead or work with children or young people in any sense, the answer to how I survived, thrived, drove change and became truly alive is simple: Because of you." @jazampawfarr.bsky.social: www.crownhouse.co.uk/because-of-y... @crownhousepub.bsky.social #BOYTIM

One of the central messages of @jazampawfarr.bsky.social's book: www.crownhouse.co.uk/because-of-y...: "Your past is not a script for your future." Out from @crownhousepub.bsky.social in July, but available to pre-order now, #BOYTIM

"Belonging isn't earned through compliance - it's offered through connection. Think about a student, friend or colleague who may feel like they are not enough. What small act can you do today to help them see themselves & their value?" @jazampawfarr.bsky.social www.crownhouse.co.uk/because-of-y...

When working with young people who are 'chaos navigators' because of trauma in their personal lives, ask yourself: "How can you be present without trying to fix everything?" @jazampawfarr.bsky.social in www.crownhouse.co.uk/because-of-y... @crownhousepub.bsky.social

Super excited to get my hands on this little beauty. And to be interviewing the mighty @jazampawfarr.bsky.social on the podcast soon! @crownhousepub.bsky.social

Look up gobsmacked in the dictionary and you’ll see this photo of me, slack-jawed, red-eyed and blinking in disbelief! I’m still reeling from the reckless generosity flooding in about my new book, Because Of You, This Is Me on socials and in the first few reviews.

Growing up in foster care, sometimes silence felt safer than speaking out. But silence doesn’t build futures - speaking up does!
