Today I’m joined by Natalie Poli. She’s an elementary principal, an author, a former instructional coach, and so much more. 

And in this conversation listen as Natalie discusses about not taking no for an answer, how to persevere through tough situations, and ways to develop a hustler mindset. Listen as she discusses  embracing our uniqueness, becoming a great teacher by design, having an agenda for planning time, and so much more.

2. Know how to persevere through a tough situation. 

3. Mindset - There’s only one way. It is forward and up!
