Helping young people better understand the power of their potential. Giving them the tools they need to embrace life with love and confidence, not ego. Freddy Love, motivational speaker and founder of The Love Not Ego Foundation, shared this and more with Pre-K through 8th grade students at Frederick Elementary School and Pimlico Elementary / Middle School in November. Mr. Love gave a series of age-appropriate, inspirational assemblies at each school, designed to teach students how to be their best and reduce—and resist—the pressure to conform.   We asked Mr. Love for his feedback on each day:Frederick Elementary School was amazing! As we had trusted that they would, the students connected with the message right away. We had a great time! I mean, an awesome time together! I’m trusting that they walked away from this experience with a reminder and awakening to what they can become and make of their lives. I’m trusting that they now have a few extra tools for life that they can use immediately to help with their daily happiness.Pimlico Elementary Middle School was another great experience! I came here to help them see the superstars that they naturally are. And they actually gave that feeling to me! I’ve had several students already follow me on social media, watching, and commenting on my inspirational videos. I feel good about them remembering this experience and message and having it serve as inspiration to help them be their authentic selves. I believe that they all left with a clearer idea of how to move forward as the best human that they can be.Thanks, Mr. Love, for serving as an inspiration for our students to be their authentic selves.
