Follow Your Heartbreak: From Burned-Out to Inspired


Session Title: Follow Your Heartbreak: From Burned-Out to Inspired

Speaker: Kate Munding


Description: This past year has chewed up a lot of teachers and spit them out. The conditions were such that many left the profession and many more were left in doubt, asking, “why am I doing this again?” As this new school year gets into its rhythm, Now Children founder, Kate Munding, will take you on a journey to reconnect with your purpose and passion for teaching by following what activist writer, Andrew Harvey, calls our heartbreak. He says, “If you’re listening, if you’re awake to the poignant beauty of the world, your heart breaks regularly. Your heart is made to break; its purpose is to burst open again and again so that it can hold evermore wonders.” By getting in touch with what makes your heartbreak in education, you’ll find energy, passion, and purpose again.
