It's easy to say that there are two sides to every story, but depending on what side you're on, the experience of this truth can be devastating. This week, I'm joined by Maire Cervenak who knows just how damaging a media story can be. Formerly a highly praised classroom teacher, Maire is now in a stage of "figuring it out" after having left the profession. In our conversation she relates her experience following a mistake at work that, vis-a-vis media attention, was spun into a story that proved incredibly damaging to her career and well-being. This episode is an honest look at the profession and role that the media play in shaping widely accepted narratives about it.
