Why does it always seem to be perfect timing when we reach out and check on people...or when people reach out and check on us? It's because all of us are ALWAYS in the midst of battles, issues , and challenges that nobody knows anything about. I tell a story about a recent somewhat humorous check-in that happened to me during a one of my epic car naps and then challenge YOU to grab your phone and check in on some of your friends as soon as you can...and that's today.

Dr. Jill Siler joins me to talk about her incredible book, Thrive Through the Five, and how to step into those big goals and dreams you have in your life. Jill was a long-time superintendent in Texas (Gunter ISD) and now serves as the Deputy Executive Director for Professional Learning for the Texas Association of School Administrators (TASA). She is wonderful keynote speaker and an inspiring voice in education who does not shy away from the reality that although we may love our work, that doesn't mean it isn't incredibly tough and challenging...and there may be even parts that we do NOT like at all.

Have you ever heard someone say, "Good teaching is good teaching...doesn't matter what the subject is?"I agree!! It's all about the principles of powerful pedagogy...or what I refer to as the chord structure. That's why I have been able to successfully deliver the Teach Like a Pirate program to groups of educators who are completely outside of my subject matter expertise and who teach any age of student from pre-k to adult learner. So in this episode I dive into what I mean by the chord structure of powerful teaching.
