Get ready, Marigolds! We will see you on Sunday, March 1st, with our first episode!
Welcome to the Marigold Force Podcast Preview episode!
Inspired by Jennifer Gonzalez, we believe that everyone - especially teachers - needs to find their Marigolds.
"If you can find at least one marigold in your school and stay close to them, you will grow. Find more than one and you will positively thrive."
Hence, we created the Marigold Force as a rebel hybrid community that brings changemaking educators together - in person and now in this podcast - to share fresh perspectives, make true personal and professional change, and have fun doing it.
Keep holding on, dear Marigolds! A break is near, but hang in there! This month, we will gather four times in our Marigold Force Podcast to focus on Perseverance all the way through the long stretch until the break.
In each podcast, we will take you through our Marigold Force Workshop Flow.
Whenever we meet - in person or in the podcast - we will take you through these elements. We start with a Cleanse - noticing where we are at and what is going on around us. Then we move on to a Guided Meditation that I will take us through. After the Guided Mediation, Joel will take us through 3 strategies we are working on at the Marigold Force this month. He will always share a strategy for Personal Growth, Professional Growth, and lastly, one we call the Community Maker. We finish out our Marigold Force Workshop with time to declare one Commitment for the week.
We want you to be able to start your week with us - in our small yet mighty Marigold Force Community.
At the Marigold Force, we believe that you can’t separate the three. Think of it as a simple math problem. Personal Growth + Professional Growth + Changemaker Community = The Marigold Force.
