We’ve been taught everything except how to be human. In a world obsessed with output, Human School is where we study what happens within. This podcast was born from a journal entry during a breakdown. A reminder that struggle isn’t weakness - it’s instruction.
Human School reframes pain as purpose, productivity as presence, and leadership as inner clarity. We’re building the education we never got. Through stories, tools, and raw conversations, we help people stop performing their lives–and start participating in them.

Annie F. Downs: The Cost of Being Everyone’s Bridge to Something Better
Episode 3
Tuesday, November 4, 2025 • Duration 01:36:10
What if the person who always makes things sound fun is actually doing the hardest work of all?
What does it cost to be the bridge that connects people to their next true thing—knowing you might get walked on, knowing they might never come back, knowing you have to keep showing up anyway?
Annie F. Downs has built a New York Times bestselling writing career, launched an award-winning podcast, and created a network that reaches millions. But beneath the joy she's known for is a woman who's learning to hold grief in one hand and hope in the other—and not let go of either.
As an Enneagram 7, Annie's wired to chase joy and avoid pain, to keep moving, to make everything sound fun. But life doesn't work that way. And in this conversation, she opens up about what happens when the fun runs out and you're left sitting in the hard stuff alone.
Annie reveals the true cost of being a "trusted bridge"—a person who connects others to what matters most, even when it means they'll walk right past you to get there. She shares about the loneliness that comes with public life, the parts people don't see: grieving alone, making impossible decisions, carrying financial weight, and the exhausting work of showing up when you'd rather disappear. She talks about losing someone who believed in her, about learning to sit in grief rather than run from it, and about why she's planning to shut down her entire company for the summer of 2027—a radical sabbatical practice inspired by biblical wisdom about letting fields rest.
This is a conversation about what it means to make joy and grief roommates, to trust your calling when it gets hard, and to keep showing up as yourself even when yourself isn't always fun.
In this conversation, you'll learn:

Judah Smith: How to Stay Human When Everyone’s Watching
Episode 2
Tuesday, October 28, 2025 • Duration 01:39:24
Have you ever felt like you're performing your life instead of actually living it?
Today, Miles Adcox sits down with pastor, author, and communicator Judah Smith for a conversation about confidence, criticism, and the courage it takes to lead with gentleness in a world that rewards strength. Judah grew up as a seventh-generation pastor, watching his father build a church from 20 people in a Courtyard Marriott to a thriving community. But what shaped Judah most wasn't the legacy—it was his father telling him from age seven: "People like you, and they want to hear what you have to say."
This conversation goes deep into the duplicity that haunts anyone in the public eye—the chasm between who we are on stage and who we are at home. The label "celebrity pastor" gets unpacked as Judah shares what it's really like to be a safe place for public figures while his own profile grows, navigating interviews that aren't about his message but about his friends. Miles reflects on one of the saddest realities for well-known people: they lose the ability to ever make a first impression again. Everyone makes up a story about who they are before they even open their mouth.
From breaking tennis rackets to breaking down barriers, from his dad getting on his knees to ask his son to pray for him before he died to parenting his own kids with radical repair instead of toxic comparison, Judah reveals what it means to stop performing and start participating. He shares his preparation method—studying himself full, praying himself hot, and letting himself go—and why he imagines the life story of a stranger in the audience before every sermon. Miles and Judah discuss why the best family moments happen in the environment of repair and why artists are the ones who bring us together when the world gets polarized.
In this conversation, you'll learn:
How Confidence Gets Built (Or Broken) in Childhood
How to Stop Performing and Start Being Yourself
How to Close the Gap Between Public and Private
Jelly Roll: How to Break Free From Your Past and Build the Life You're Meant to Live
Episode 1
Tuesday, October 21, 2025 • Duration 01:28:07
Have you ever been so stuck in your past that you couldn't see your future?
What if the person you used to be is the exact reason you can help someone else become who they're meant to be?
Today, Miles Adcox sits down with Grammy-nominated artist and advocate Jelly Roll for a raw, unfiltered conversation about redemption, rage, and the messy road from rock bottom to purpose. From stealing TVs from bars to pay his band, to being intoxicated in sketchy venues, to the moment his daughter was born while he was locked up in Davidson County Jail—Jelly Roll's journey isn't polished or easy. Known for vulnerable songs like "Save Me" and "I Am Not Okay," Jelly Roll has transformed his wounds into songs that give millions permission to admit they're struggling too.
This conversation goes places most interviews don't dare. Jelly Roll opens up about his affair with his wife Bunny, calling it "one of the worst moments of my adulthood," and shares how they've rebuilt their relationship stronger than ever through repair and presence. He reveals his ongoing battle with food addiction and how he is overcoming it day by day. They discuss his Damascus Road moment in jail when he learned his daughter Bailey was born, the rage that was his default emotion, and how signing up for the GED program while surrounded by convicts became his first act of humility.
Miles and Jelly Roll explore the power of changing your circle — how, when you hang around nine people long enough, you become the tenth.
The conversation reveals Jelly Roll's purpose work—why walking into jails and juvenile detention centers is where he feels most relaxed and most alive. They discuss the Jericho program, Sheriff Darren Hall's grace in placing him in the education unit despite his charges, and how that decision changed the entire trajectory of his life.
From the Grand Ole Opry to WWE SummerSlam training, from IVF struggles with surrogacy to buying an entire farm after his Onsite experience, from the pre-show prayer that evolved from bar fights to the basketball court where he values assists over baskets—this conversation reveals the human behind the headlines. Jelly Roll shares his father's profound prayer story about a difficult coworker named John, teaching that prayer often changes us more than it changes our circumstances. Miles offers his own two-word prayer for the broken: "Whatever" in the morning, "Enough" at night.

Will Guidara: The Night He Came in Last Changed Everything
Episode 4
Wednesday, November 12, 2025 • Duration 01:28:13
What does it cost to be exceptional at something? And is that price worth paying? How do you know when competitiveness becomes calling—or when it just becomes noise?
Will Guidara grew up in restaurants, watching his father balance being a Hall of Fame dad while caring for Will's mother, who developed quadriplegia after a brain cancer diagnosis. At 12 years old, a single dinner at The Four Seasons changed everything. That night sparked a journey that would take him from Cornell to working for legendary restaurateur Danny Meyer, eventually transform Eleven Madison Park into the #1 restaurant in the world. But this isn't a story about climbing to the top; it's about what happened after.
Will opens up about the night he came in dead last on the World's 50 Best Restaurants list and how that became the catalyst for completely reimagining what excellence could mean. He shares the legendary stories behind the restaurant's most magical moments. Then COVID hit, allowing Will to rethink his next steps in the New York restaurant scene.
Miles and Will explore the danger of tying your entire identity to your work, what it means to welcome people truly, and why small gestures matter more than grand productions. This conversation is about hospitality as a philosophy for life—turning toward people with curiosity, being fully present, and remembering that excellence and empathy can live in the same room.
In this conversation, you'll learn:
How to Turn Adversity Into Your Greatest Teacher Instead of Your Biggest Enemy
How to Know If Competitiveness Is Serving You or Destroying You
How to Create Unreasonable Hospitality in Any Relationship or Work You Do

Moments with Miles: When the Life You Built Starts to Stretch You
Episode 6
Thursday, November 27, 2025 • Duration 15:27
What if the thing that's exhausting you is actually the life you once begged the universe for?
What if your tiredness isn't evidence of failure, but proof that you're living a life that asks something of you?
In this solo episode, Miles Adcox shares a message that unexpectedly resonated with millions. But before unpacking why this landed so deeply, he tells a story that changed his entire perspective on gratitude, loss, and what we choose to focus on.
Miles opens up about the tension between being tired and being grateful, between feeling overwhelmed by the life you built and remembering you once dreamed about having it. He reveals why so much of the advice we hear about rest and unplugging can feel idealistic when you're in the thick of raising kids, leading teams, or building something from nothing. This isn't about glorifying burnout or romanticizing exhaustion. It's about learning to hold two truths at once: you can be stretched and still be exactly where you're supposed to be.
Miles goes deep into the concept of reframing, explaining how shifting the way we interpret our experience changes how our brain and body hold it. He shares the psychological principle that "gratitude without honesty is denial, but honesty without gratitude is despair."
This conversation will help you see that not everything stretching you is breaking you; sometimes it's growing you.
In this conversation, you'll learn:
How to distinguish between exhaustion that drains you and exhaustion that sustains you
How a brown dead spot in a yard became a prized possession and shifted everything
How to reframe "I have to" into "I get to" without denying the weight you're carrying
How psychological reframing changes the way your brain and body hold stress
Dax: What Happens When You Finally Take the Shot You've Been Too Afraid to Take
Episode 5
Wednesday, November 19, 2025 • Duration 01:41:45
What if the anger you've been running from is actually the fuel you need?
What happens when an 11-year-old discovers manifestation, commits a decade to basketball, then rewrites his entire life story with a poem on a bus?
Dax has built a career on saying what most people are afraid to say out loud. He is blending hip hop, gospel and country influences into music speaking from a place of raw vulnerability. But before the millions of followers and sold-out tours, he was a kid who felt invisible.
In this conversation, Dax opens up about discovering the Law of Attraction at age 11, spending ten years in what he calls an "unhealthy commitment" to basketball, and the pivotal moment on a team bus when he wrote his first poem and opened up a new outcome for his life. He reveals his ten-month journey of sobriety, confronting the tough questions and realizations of his lifestyle that changed everything.
Dax shares how anger became his alchemy; not something to escape, but a force he learned to harness through repetition and mental discipline. From mental health walks to the liquor store to performing sober for the first time, Dax's story is about transforming every rejection, every missed opportunity, and every uncomfortable emotion into art that changes lives.
This is a conversation about standing in your divinity, taking the jump when it matters most, and discovering that the person you're chasing when you drink is actually who you already are when you're fully present.
In this conversation, you'll learn:
How to Transform Anger Into Your Greatest Motivator
How the Law of Attraction Changed Everything at Age 11

Victor The Good Boss: A Story About Second Chances For the People Who Need Them Most
Episode 7
Wednesday, December 3, 2025 • Duration 01:00:05
What if the person society gave up on is one conversation away from changing their entire life?
What if the best leaders don't wait for people to ask for help, but they go find them?
Victor Oliveira, known to millions as "The Good Boss," doesn't just talk about second chances. He drives the streets looking for people who need one. From buying coffee for his employees to pulling over on highways to offer hope to people living on the streets, Victor has built a movement around one simple truth: everyone deserves to be seen as equals who've just been through different struggles.
Victor's story didn't start with generosity. It started in a Massachusetts state prison, where a young man who'd dropped out of high school and fallen into drug dealing sat on a prison bed and decided his life wasn't over. That two-year sentence became his reset button.
In this raw and moving conversation, Victor opens up about the monumental moments that happened before becoming the man millions now know for stopping on the side of the road and asking one question: "Do you want help?" Through the stories he has been a part of, Victor reveals why refusing to hold people's hands and giving tough love is often what can help change people's stories.
This is a conversation about redemption, leadership, and what it really means to see people. Victor doesn't just save lives. He reminds us that the most overlooked person in your city might be the one who changes everything if someone just stops long enough to care.
In this conversation, you'll learn:
How to Turn a Prison Sentence Into a Second Chance at Life
How to Offer Opportunity Without Enabling Dependence
How to Approach Someone Living on the Streets With Dignity and Respect
Janet McDonald: You Become a Better Leader by Becoming a Better Human
Episode 10
Wednesday, December 31, 2025 • Duration 01:12:10
What if the loneliest position you'll ever hold is the one you worked your whole life to achieve?
What if everything you learned about leadership left out the most important part?
Janet McDonald, CEO of Onsite, didn't start her career planning to lead with vulnerability. She started at 14, running a ladies boutique in downtown Franklin, TN while her friends worked as her employees. At nine years old, she was already holding her family together after her parents' divorce, learning early that "if it is to be, it's up to me." That message drove her through a successful career in management consulting, always climbing and achieving, until she realized something was missing.
Janet first heard about Onsite the way many do: someone told her, "It changed my life." Then another person said it. Then another. Her curiosity piqued, but she was skeptical. Either they had a really good marketing campaign, or something real was happening an hour outside Nashville, TN. When she applied to be Chief Operating Officer, she thought, "Who in their right mind is going to drive an hour every day out here?" But as she drove up the hill to the campus, something shifted immediately.
What makes Janet's leadership distinctive is that she bridges two worlds that rarely meet: strategic clarity and courageous vulnerability. In this conversation, Janet opens up about the cost of leadership, including the loneliness and isolation, and reveals how her pre-teen self still shows up in boardrooms. She shares why curiosity is the number one skill of any leader, and why the 18-inch journey from head to heart is the hardest one you'll ever make.
In this conversation, you'll learn:
How to Lead from Behind Instead of in Front
How Your Nine-to-Fourteen-Year-Old Self Still Shows Up in Boardrooms
How to Change Your Observer to Open Up New Possibilities for Action
How to Ask "What Is It Like to Be on the Other Side of Me?"
Tyler Hubbard: Becoming Yourself When the World Knows You as Half of Florida Georgia Line
Episode 9
Wednesday, December 17, 2025 • Duration 03:20:45
What if the person you became after tragedy is exactly who you were meant to be?
Can you rebuild a friendship after the world watched it fall apart?
Tyler Hubbard built one of the biggest acts in country music history with Florida Georgia Line: breaking records, selling out stadiums, and changing the genre forever. But before the charts and the spotlight, he was a kid from small-town Georgia washing cars to make ends meet, learning work ethic from a father who collected people the way most collect things, and finding solace in music during the hardest moment of his life.
In this raw conversation, Tyler opens up about losing his father, Roy Hubbard, at 20 in a tragic accident, and the real story behind Florida Georgia Line's breakup. A story that is not the political narrative the internet created, but the human one about boundaries, business decisions, and two friends navigating an impossible season during a pandemic. Tyler also shares stories about why he played the inauguration, how he met his wife, Hayley, and knew she was the one, and why he's finally ready to let people see the man behind the brand.
This is a conversation about second chances, choosing faith over fear, and why sometimes the hardest thing to do is simply tell the truth.

How to Turn Tragedy Into Faith Instead of Bitterness
How Your Childhood Work Ethic Shapes Your Adult Success
