In this episode they talk about ...

  • The ways emotions are contagious and how we, as educators and coaches can bring hope into our school contexts.

  • How the world works in cycles and seasons, and how important it is for us to understand what season we are in, and how we can recognize that within our school communities.

  • The importance of breaks, of being in nature, being vulnerable and recognizing the ways that we need to find space and time to heal

  • Why emotions are important - even when we're talking about facts

  • How we are connected - and how important embracing that connection is.
