Scarlett Lewis

You're in a privileged circle of Connecticut educators.

This 30% discount is not available on our website. It is not being promoted broadly. It has been extended personally — by phone — to a select group of Connecticut schools that are already living the Choose Love mission every day. Scarlett is from Connecticut. This is her way of saying thank you to the educators in her own home state who are doing this work.

Scarlett Lewis speaking

Purpose born from unimaginable grief.

On December 14, 2012, Scarlett Lewis lost her six-year-old son Jesse in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. What she did next changed the world.

Rather than surrender to grief, Scarlett channeled her pain into purpose. She developed the Choose Love Formula™ — grounded in neuroscience, emotional intelligence, and the four foundational pillars of Courage, Gratitude, Forgiveness, and Compassion — and built a global movement to teach these skills to every child.

"Choosing love as a thoughtful response empowers us to become the best version of ourselves."

When Scarlett speaks to your staff in person, the curriculum they've been teaching becomes something far more personal — and far more powerful.

What Your Staff Will Experience

More than a workshop. A shift in how your entire school community sees itself.

❤️

The Personal Story

Scarlett shares Jesse's story and the extraordinary act of love and courage that inspired the Choose Love Movement — giving your staff the emotional foundation to teach these principles authentically.

🧠

The Science Behind the Formula

Participants learn the neuroscience of emotional choice — why the Choose Love Formula works, how it rewires responses to adversity, and what the research says about outcomes in schools that implement it.

🏫

School Culture Transformation

Scarlett shows how Choose Love reduces bullying, builds belonging, and creates safe, resilient classrooms — with real data and real stories from schools across the country.

Renewed Buy-In & Momentum

Your staff leaves united, motivated, and equipped. The Kickoff is the ignition moment that transforms the curriculum from a classroom tool to a whole-school identity.

🤝

Courageous Leadership

Administrators and counselors gain specific tools for leading with empathy, navigating difficult conversations, and modeling the four pillars for students every day.

🌟

A Message That Stays

Attendees leave with a renewed sense of purpose — not just as educators, but as people. Scarlett's message blends heartfelt storytelling, compelling research, and practical takeaways into a one-of-a-kind experience.
