    Turn over is real. In this episode, Elin & Christina talk about their professional journey through seven district changes. They address the issue of the lack of a real exit interview and wonder if districts started implementing this, could they learn how to retain educators...especially educators of color?

  • 04. Our First Guest! From Wisconsin to Oakland, how TFA brought this reflective educator to the bay.

    In this episode, we welcome our first guest! You will hear from Sarah Pipping: an educator in Oakland from Wisconsin (or is it Minnesota?...inside joke) and our co-conspirator in this work. Sarah showed up to our collaborative conversations and book study over the summer and we wanted her to be our first guess to talk about her educational journey and how she shows up to do the work every day. Listen in and hear Christina shout her praises about Sarah and learn about being a reflective leader.
