I discovered this podcast in my quest to alleviate the anxiety I was feeling about returning to the classroom after 12 years of full-time parenting.

I’m so grateful for this resource, it has definitely helped to quell my nervousness and make me feel prepared to teach again! The fact that it is Australian is the icing on the cake (as a fellow Aussie). Highly recommend for CRTs and new or returning teachers. Tha... more
