Brittny Irvin is many, many things. 

During the day, she’s a teacher at a high school in the Charlotte, NC area. 

After work, she’s helping her super-cool daughter Bean develop a social presence based on making a difference, sharing your individuality and just being yourself (shout out to @thesweetlifeofbean).

All day, every day, she’s a Mama x3, a woman of color, and an all around bad-ass. Oh, and there was that time she was a panelist at one of our favorite events with The Champagne Society. 

Brittny is an inspiration to us all, especially as a high school teacher during a global pandemic.  

In this conversation, she dives DEEP discussing the following:

• What it's like being a teacher during a pandemic
• Her experience with a COVID, "geriatric" pregnancy
• Managing being over-extended as a black mother, friend, and educator during the BLM revolution
• Pacing herself for waves of anti-racism
• Social media induced mom guilt
• Knowing what it feels like to be the only minority in a classroom
• And so much more

Final note: We are not shaming you if you took your kids to the pumpkin patch this year. I kinda wanted to make it to one, but just didn’t get to it.

Let’s do this.
