In this episode, I’m talking with Channing White, a veteran educator and strategic equity coach whom I’ve connected with through Instagram. In our conversation, we talk about our thoughts on the history of education and how its origins are still impacting the field of education today - for both students and educators. We also uncover the many troubling inequities in not only our schools but the entire education system as well as what we can start doing - even if it’s just in our classrooms - to create the systemic change that’s so desperately needed in education.

Ep. 12-Evolution

I’m Alexis, a growth-obsessed magical black girl and self-help junkie with the gift of gab. As a former middle school English teacher, I’ve endured the burnout, bureaucracy, and all that comes with the teaching profession. Now, I’m here to empower you to step into the most confident, conscious, and authentic version of yourself inside and outside the classroom. Whether you’re a current teacher, former teacher, or a teacher curious about the possibilities, this podcast is about our/a shared journey of becoming. So, get ready to ditch perfectionism, celebrate progress, and find joy in the journey.
