Our hope for students is that they will lean into the 7 Habits to navigate the challenges and opportunities life has to offer, and bring their leadership and effectiveness into who they become. Join Molly, Dr. Eve, and guest Laura Smith, District Elementary School Lighthouse Coordinator and Leadership Instructional Coach, as they dig into the power behind teaching leadership and integrating it into what we do every day.

We can see the genius of students so clearly, how can we help them see it too? Join Molly, Dr. Eve, and guest Emily Avila, Dual-Language Teacher at Maie Ellis Elementary School as they explore practical strategies that help students become able to see their own light and the impact it has on themselves and each other.

What happens when we model for students how we, too, are learners? Join Molly and special guest Muriel Summers, as they talk about the power of the Inside-Out Approach to learning and teaching.

On September 19, 2023, we’ll be releasing an Empowering Teacher Podcast for Early Learning educators, another for Elementary educators, and our third one for Secondary educators, our middle and high school teachers.

And just like that, the end of the year is here! It comes and goes in the blink of an eye, and if we are not careful we can miss out on an amazing opportunity to honor the pause and reflect on all that accompanied a year of learning. Join Molly, as she talks with Robin Becker, Coach and Consultant from Texas, who shares practical ways to lean into reflection and move us forward as we plan for the upcoming year.

We can all relate to the butterflies in our belly, remembering to take a deep breath, and that feeling of just wanting it over when we lean into the courage it takes to hold a difficult conversation—whether with a student, a parent, or a colleague. Join Molly, as she talks with Stephanie Gow, Coach and Consultant from Texas, about how to create a 7 Habits toolkit to navigate difficult conversations and transform relationships.

We find our voice when we use our passion, talents, and our conscience to address a need in the world. When we model this for our students and colleagues, we empower them to find their voice. It’s the heart of teaching. So, what does this look like in our classroom? Join Molly, as she talks with Dana Penick, Coach and Consultant from North Carolina.

Does it ever feel like all you do is set goals? You might have goal fatigue! If we want to go beyond setting goals and see goal achievement with excellence, we need a system or process that can help our students own it and crush it! Join Molly as she talks with Lesley Eason, Coach and Consultant from North Carolina, who walks us through a simple outline to begin this work.

Do you ever sit back and wonder what is going on in the brains of your students? Like, if I could just figure out the why, or see a little deeper, I might be able to figure out how to help them. You're not alone! Spend some quality time with Dr. Eve Miller, Cognitive Neuroscientist, as she talks with Molly about how to build a neuroscience toolkit that can help us understand and support our students.

Our students are like us. They can get overwhelmed and sometimes they carry some big emotions from the day before into a new morning. As teachers, what can we do in those moments? Join Molly and guests Toni White and Ashely Tucker as they share how leaders at Cuivre Park Elementary created and use a calming space for students to work through their emotions.
