This episode has a phrase that you can use DAILY to help you get through those challenging days where you wonder if you should quit. Those days where the self-criticism piles on and feels like it will go on forever.
When applied correctly, this phrase can slow the pendulum of "I'm the best teacher ever" and "I am, and was never enough" to "It just is"
It doesn't force you to think positively because sometimes that just layers on the judgment.
Try out this phrase this week, and I'd love for you to report back!

How often do you say you "should" do something? What does that feel like? Not good, I'm guessing. This episode gives examples of how "should" might be showing up uninvited in your life.
The first step is to recognize it's there, the next step is to NOT judge it if it is, and lastly, bury it so it will stop having the negative influence that it ALWAYS will.

Self-Doubt has a way of getting louder the more we care about something; like being a good teacher. In this episode, I open up about the voice of doubt that still shows up for me- and why I choose to keep showing up anyway.
If you've ever wondered how to move forward when insecurity feels heavy, this conversation will remind you that courage isn't about silencing doubt; it's about walking with it.

In this heartfelt episode of Teach Like a Human, I open up about my thoughts on school shootings—an unthinkable reality that leaves behind waves of grief, fear, and unanswered questions. Instead of turning away from the pain or getting stuck in the “why,” I share why allowing ourselves to truly grieve is the key to personal and collective healing. Grief honors the lives lost, makes space for our humanity, and gently guides us toward resilience and hope. This conversation isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about the courage to feel deeply and the belief that healing begins when we give ourselves permission to mourn.
