The Nicole Walters Podcast

Friend, today we’re shining a spotlight on some unsung heroes - our educators. From late and long hours to supplying our students with the things they need to succeed, our educators fill the gaps without being asked. As Teacher Appreciation Week approaches, I was encouraged to send a note to a teacher that made a difference in my life 21 years ago. In this chat I am sharing that story and what happened after I sent that note. This is the perfect time for us to show up for our educators. You can do that by sharing a story about an incredible educator this Teacher Appreciation Week. Go to NEA.org/TAWstory to shoutout an educator in your life. Thanks for being here today friend and THANK YOU to all of our educators! We support, love, and appreciate you!

Friends, this doesn’t make sense! In this chat we are talking about something that is becoming normalized in our culture that frankly shouldn’t be. When we normalize everything, we leave no room for standing in the truth of what makes sense for most people. Between giving others grace, knowing we don’t know the whole story, and staying out of others' business, it can be hard to say, “Well THAT, I wouldn’t recommend to my own kids.” Friend, we need to chat and I want to hear YOUR thoughts. Let’s extend each other grace but also talk for real real!

How can you get more clarity on who you are and how you should show up? If you’ve been around here for any amount of time, you know I’m a hot mess and still figuring out many things out but what I’ve learned is that I am clear on who I am. In fact, it has been the influence of others that has brought me further from my clarity. This friend, is what we need to talk about today. If you find yourself with a lack of clarity, it's likely not because there's something fundamentally wrong within you keeping you from being clear. It may be that you have the wrong people in your space affirming and telling you who you are and what options you have (or don’t have!) Friend, this chat is important. Don’t miss it!
