    Kim talks about her unpleasant stay in NJ, where she tripped, peed a little, and ripped her dress before leaving the house. (No alcohol was involved.)
    We want to know how you feel about making new friends as a middle-aged woman. Also, we talk about the car hood JLO wears and how Dolly broke into the Dallas Cowboys cheerleader club. 
    Hopefully, you are close to winter break!

  • Sunday Scary Rewind: Working Smarter, Teacher Sick Day Stories, and the Abominable Snow Man

    Send a text

    Beat the Sunday Scaries!

    (Jen was not harmed in the making of this podcast even though she sucked in a gallon of water whilst laughing.) Kim is sorry for causing this. 
    Jen and Kim talk about ways to take a few things off your plate as a teacher. You may be thinking about transitioning out of education, but in the meantime, there are some ways you can save your sanity. Kim continues reading stories about the horrific treatment teachers get when they take a sick day.  They end with the age-old question is the Abominable Snowman a snowman or a hairy creature wandering in the snow?
    Give a 5-star review and STAY TWISTED!

  • Lesson Plans to Life Plans: Interview with Maggie Carmain -Life After Teaching

    Send a text

    We had a great conversation with Maggie. This is the Linkedin post that caught our attention. We are hearing more and more about students assaulting teachers. Maggie tells her story.

    I often get asked if I miss teaching.

    Such a loaded question and the answer is yes and no.

    I could go into a long list of things I don't miss but you have likely heard most of them before. My exit came when I was physically assaulted by a student, but it definitely wasn't the only reason.

    But what I do miss is the laughter I shared with fellow teachers, the stories that you simply could not make up if you tried, the kids I had grown close to, and the bond that is created among teammates who have been in the trenches together.

    But I found my life in sales to be so similar. The stories we share and struggles we experience gave me that same feeling that I was missing when I left the classroom. No one really understands what your day to day is unless they are going through it with you. The is an unspoken understanding between teachers and sales reps that says, "I'm right there with you and we will laugh about this later."

    Trust and support from your team and leadership is everything.

    So, yes I miss it. But, no I am not going back.

  • Series: Lesson Plans to Life Plans-Interview with Stephen Guerriero (Former Teacher and Current Edcuation Advocate)

    Send a text

    We had a fantastic conversation with Stephen Guerierro. He talked about his journey out of education and into education advocacy.

    He has leveraged years of classroom experience to help founders design learning tools for success.

    He is constantly in motion, driven by a belief that education is society's strongest weapon against injustice. Stephen has developed many skills: public speaking, writing, creating multimedia content, and evaluating educational technology. 

    Stephen holds true to two causes:  mental health and the rights of LGBTQ+ individuals. 🏳️‍🌈

    Listen to this heartfelt and transparent interview.

  • Sometimes We Lie About Doing a Book Review, Talking Sh*t, and Only Fans Fun

    Send a text

    Jen and Kim began recording a book review about Sometimes I Lie.  It started with good intentions but ended up in the dumpster fire. So, they moved on to Kim's potential side hustle of rowing in slow motion on Only Fans. No, Kim isn't going to do that. They discussed the teacher who made A MILLION dollars showing her bootie and cootie. Also, according to the National Inquirer, there is trouble in paradise because Ben isn't picking up the poo. 

    Stay tuned to Kim's rant about the research regarding learning styles not being real.
