In this episode of the Tattoo Teacher podcast, I had the pleasure of talking with Kirstene Ciappara. Kirstene shares her journey from being a traditional teacher to embracing entrepreneurship and life design in education. We discuss the importance of authenticity in teaching, the evolving landscape of career paths for students, and the need for psychological safety in learning environments. Kirstene emphasizes the significance of helping students understand their unique designs and the role of parents in supporting their children's educational journeys. The conversation also touches on integrating faith and purpose into education, highlighting the importance of building

relationships and fostering a culture of uniqueness in schools. In this conversation, we also explore the concept of empathy in education, discussing whether it can be taught and how understanding one's strengths can lead to greater success. We emphasize the importance of focusing on individual strengths rather than weaknesses, advocating for a strengths-based approach in both personal and professional settings. Kirstene shares insights from her work with MyDesign Education, which aims to help students discover their unique talents and align their passions with their career paths.
