In our chat with Yanna...
We dive deep into the sensitive relationships of teenagers, teachers, the impact the pandemic has had on both figures and the importance of leadership at these times.
Joanne (Yanna) focuses on how important the teen years are, as well as teachers and their mental health. She explains to us how teachers are now on the front lines, and how they are having to find meaning in the middle of one of the biggest crisis'.
Joanne (Yanna) states and expands on the fact that we never really grow out of adolescence and shares her opinion on how we could salvage this past year through finding meaning and not trying to make sense of it.
As Yanna says:
“Good teachers know their students. Master teachers know themselves.”
Yanna’s message to women today is:
“Unapologetic Sovereignty”.
