Description

In this episode of the ILP Podcast, we're discussing the three powerful mindset shifts that help me stay focused on my students, even as we navigate these challenging times. With the political landscape creating a backdrop of uncertainty, I still plan on maintaining a student-centered classroom where joy, care, and purpose stay at the .

I Discussed:

• The importance of focusing on what we can control, rather than getting overwhelmed by larger, uncontrollable forces.
• The role of rest, self-care, and building community as foundational practices for maintaining resilience and positivity.

• Why teaching is an investment in our students' futures, emphasizing how the skills and mindsets we foster today will shape their tomorrow.

Mentioned During the Episode:

• Movement is Medicine (ILP Podcast)
• Reflect, Renew, and Reset (ILP Podcast)
• Reaffirming Your Why (Blog Post)
• This Election was About Education (IG Reel)
