What does it take to go from a small town in Nebraska to becoming an award-winning documentary filmmaker? Join me as I sit down with the incredibly talented Sally Nelson to discover her journey, the mentors who inspired and shaped her, and the approach she takes to connect with her subjects and bring their stories to life for her audiences. We also discuss the best advice she's ever received and how it has helped her create meaningful relationships and connections.
Sally opens up about her powerful series of films focusing on mental health, poverty, early childhood education, health and wellness, and STEM in Nebraska's public schools. Get an inside look at the compelling stories being told in North Platte, Nebraska, and hear about Sally's biggest revelation while creating this documentary series. We also explore the importance of mentorship and the profound impact of Ms. Williams, a mentor who changed Sally's life.
Finally, we dive into Sally's new initiative to end the teacher shortage through a documentary film and impact campaign. We discuss the captivating idea of a campaign called "Who Taught You?" and the importance of elevating the teaching profession. Don't miss this inspiring conversation as we uncover Sally's story of resilience, success, and her mission to make a difference in the world of education.
