You make a difference every day. Yet, the pandemic may have challenged you and kept you from missed opportunities. We will discuss how “Define Your WHY” takes you through activities to guide you to figure out what you love, what you are good at, and your purpose as an educator. In this Book Club discussion, you will realize you can face your fears, start your WHY statement, and identify opportunities to focus on well-being that you can use as a model for your learners.
