  • Smart, Relatable, Actionable

    I’ve listened to Angela Watson’s podcast for a number of years, and what I always find is that she is addressing the issues and concerns that I am facing- not only as a teacher- but as a human being trying to make my way through this life with thoughtfulness, compassion, and grace. She is down-to-earth, yet wise in what she shares. Her words and suggestions have been a real help to me many times over the years! This is a great podcast for teachers- and others, too!

  • Essential. Brilliant. Compassionate.

    If only I had a resource like Angela and her dynamic teaching/coaching many years ago, then I think my teaching journey would have been a very different one. Ultimately, I have walked away from education/teaching (repeatedly), but this podcast and Angela’s wisdom helped not only make my professional life better but also myself. Her work is enlightening, challenging paradigms and inspiring new possibilities.
