We are told that if anyone else has differing thoughts then they are a different party and we cannot civilly interact with them. That mindset has divided us. We are told to stop interacting with people who are not the same party. Join me as I debunk the toxic political climate that is putting us at war with each other.  --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/practicewhatyouteach/support

Our lives are literally insane, despite the pandemic slowing us down for a short while, most of our lives are back to a normal 2019 speed and I find that unfortunate.

I've been walking on eggshells in order to allow others to speak up first, this week I decided I needed to jump back into my passion for speaking on social issues. Join me as I share a pro tip in the classroom that helped me understand how we are programmed in society to think in a "white way".  A lot is actually about race when you may not think it is!  P.S. This was recorded and written a few days before the riots at the Capital. More to come on that but until then, this is a perfect segway into the conversation!  --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/practicewhatyouteach/support

Peace out 2020, I never want to see you again. You brought a lot of terror and uninvited distress into the world. I may be flashing a peace sign and flipping the bird to 2020, but I am also appreciating how we reprioritized conversation, rest, and action into our lives because of the unprecedented times. Join me this week as I touch on what was NOT the roaring '20s and instead the year of love and hate.   --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/practicewhatyouteach/support

I believe these questions recenter my purpose and will do the same to you-I’ve said it a million times and I will until the day I die; we stray from our most authentic self because our society distracts us from our own identity. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/practicewhatyouteach/support

One year already!! Wow! Time flies! Spoiler alert-it's been one year since I left for Ghana and it's been a wild ride!

Also, a quick shoutout to listeners-this would be nothing without your support; we are just getting started!!! Y'all ROCK.  --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/practicewhatyouteach/support

I dyed my hair. What a dumb way to open an episode, but this is a big deal! Like anything, I analyzed my need to dye it and tied it back to my identity! Listen and hear about how I am feeling about the change and how it is deeply rooted (shocker)!  --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/practicewhatyouteach/support
