TITLE: “Fusion: Creating Better Humans on the Planet ”

SPECIAL GUEST: Michelle Gilman – Founder

Allen, Dr. Melody and our guest, Michelle Gilman, explore what it means to create ‘humans on the planet’, as well as academic performers. She feels strongly that today’s educational approach is overlooking the fact that students are daughters, sons, sisters, brothers, girlfriends, boyfriends, etc. – with a plethora of issues and thoughts surrounding these roles.

Fusion Academy’s mission is to provide an educational environment for students that goes beyond academics to create a better, more compassionate human being. Gilman and her colleagues believe that creating a better human on the planet is much higher calling in the long run than creating the next accountant or the next lawyer. They want their kids to leave feeling more confident, more aware of themselves, more accepting of both their strengths and their weaknesses, and on a path that will lead to success in all areas of their lives.
