Our conversation today focuses on the importance of maintaining perspective and purpose as educators, and to remember our “Why” as we perform this important work.

In this episode, we “flash back” to our first episode of the Educators Among Us podcast, so you can hear why we do what we do and why it matters. Then. Way back in the beginning. And now.

We cap off the program by talking about that “spark” that you had as an educator, and how it’s so important to find it and to keep it.

Takeaways

• Maintaining perspective is crucial for educators to remember their purpose and not get lost in the emotions of the moment.

• Educators have the power to spark enthusiasm for learning and should see themselves as more than just dispensers of curriculum.

• Teaching hearts, minds, and souls is an important aspect of education.

• Educators who spark dreams and enable growth and achievement are invaluable.

• Gratitude should be expressed for the commitment and courage of educators who answer the call to serve and persevere.
