  • Up Your 'Back-to-School' Game with Michelle Young

    Up Your 'Back-to-School' Game with Michelle Young
    Aug 16 2024
    Michelle Young - an inspiring educator, TV personality, speaker, and founder of The Michelle Young Foundation - shares her stories of teaching, television, and transitions in this special Back to School TFC episode!

    In this episode, Michelle joins Dana to discuss the importance of prioritizing wellbeing during major transitions (ranging from the classroom to TV, and from summer to school!), and practical strategies for easing the shift from summer-mode to school-mode. Relatable tip for all teachers - 📓 new stationery helps! Michelle shares her strategies for recharging, routines for getting "back in the game," and classroom ideas to foster connection and community in those first few days.

    Beyond "Back to School" - this candid conversation also explores the identity dynamics at play when you're a teacher - from the pressure and responsibility to be "on" and serve as a role model, to the courage to pursue change when you're ready for new career horizons. Whether you're a fan of Michelle from her time on The Bachelorette, or a new fan of her inspiring Foundation, you will enjoy listening to her inspiring stories and wisdom on navigating life and transitions as an educator.

    "Once an educator, always an educator" - Michelle Young, TFC Episode 26
