  So in the early two thousands, exposed to the often horrifying ways that kids were treating each other, Rosalind Wiseman decided to write a book that eventually was called Queen Bees and wannabes, helping her daughter survive cliques, gossip, boyfriends and the new realities of girl world.

  She had no idea what would happen when this book moved out into the world.

• 00:28

  But when it did, it exploded into the public's consciousness, revealing pervasive social cruelty, bullying and injustice among kids.

• 00:37

  And young adults especially focused on girls.

• 00:39

  It also became a bit of a manifesto for a movement of change, leading her to develop curriculum and travel the world on a mission to teach parents and educators and teachers and community leaders and anyone else in a position of trust and influence for kids how to create environments that foster more dignity and shared humanity.

  And along the way, she also did something radical.

• 01:04

  She invited those very kids and young adults to become advisors and contributors, giving them a genuine voice in developing the programs and the curriculum and the ideas that truly resonated with them.

• 01:18

  So now, as the founder of an organization called Cultures of Dignity, she's on a mission to work with communities to really shift the way we think about young people's physical and emotional well being.

  It has not been easy, but she is committed to this and making a profound global impact with her work.

• 01:38

  It is truly making kids and young adults lives better and in turn, the lives of their families.

• 01:44

  And the bigger ripple is the state of the world.

• 01:47

  So excited to share this conversation with you.

  I'm Jonathan Fields and this is good life project.

  You have been on my radar for quite a number of years through my wife, actually.

• 02:08

  A number of times.

• 02:08

  She's like, she's doing such powerful work.

• 02:12

  I can't understand why this is not in every school around the country and around the world.

• 02:17

  So it's great to be able to actually sort of like coordinate times and be in the same time because I know you're on planes, trains and automobiles all the time also.

• 02:24

  Yeah, I want to dive deep into a lot of the work you've been doing over the last few years and then some of the stuff you're doing right now.

• 02:29

  Let's take a step back in time, though, and sort of like trace a bit of the origin story.
