This podcast was exactly what I was searching for as an educator. I wanted someone who not only was inspirational and shared great resources and strategies, but was also real about teaching. There are a lot of incredible moments in teaching as well as some difficult times. Listening to her has helped me stay the course and remember my why! If you’re a teacher, give her a listen. You won’t regret it!
