Overview

This book helps you be the biggest, boldest, and most powerful version of your teacher self. It reminds you why you became a teacher and coaches you to bring your unique gifts and talents into the classroom. The difference between a so-so lesson and one that leaves a lasting impact on students has everything to do with how confident and connected you feel to yourself and your students.

Read this book when you need an extra shot of bravery. It’s a perfect resource if


• You want to coach yourself into fulfilling your teacher potential
• You are looking for more balance in your teaching and personal life
• You want a pep talk for saying no to what doesn’t help students and yes to what you know does
• You want to grow and deepen your practice without losing yourself in the process
