In this episode, we get to talk to Jen Laffin the creator of TeachWrite. You have probably heard us talk about her on the podcast before. I’ve had the pleasure of participating in her Time to Write workshop, and she has created a phenomenal community.
As you may have noticed, season two is focused on how people have turned their passion projects into real world opportunities. So in this episode, notice how Jen has taken something she was passionate about— writing and turned it into her day job. She is now helping teachers become better writers so that they can become better teachers of writing.
Having a passion project doesn’t require you to leave the classroom. In fact, think of it as something that brings you joy, widens your impact and is anchored in your curiosity.
In the next episode, I’m going to reveal to you a project that I just started working on, and that I feel really passionate about. As you know my word for 2021 is ASK, so I’m ask you to be a part of it.
Design your life and learning with intention. Find out your design superpower and receive strategies and ideas to make your teaching life easier.
