I am a Professional Development Specialist. I work primarily with teachers of grades 6-12 and my area of focus is literacy.

I LOVE satiating my curiosity by reading, writing, connecting, making, & teaching. I have an amazing family, incredible friends, a cool little dog, & out of this world three-legged cat.

Episode Summary

You’ve got something to say but you’re nervous. Your stomach’s in knots and your head’s filled with endless chatter: 

  • Why would anyone want to hear what I’ve got to say?
  • What if they don’t like my ideas?
  • Even worse what if no-one reads or listens – and my ideas just disappear into the vortex?  
In this episode: 
  • How do we navigate the fears and self-doubt relating to sharing our ideas online?
  • How do we overcome the procrastination, take that step and just ship it – letting our ideas out into the world? 

Plus – We’re thinking on our feet with the Lightning Round with Risk, Passion and Curiosity up for scrutiny. And to bring us home – A Not To Be Missed Book about How to Think Creatively.
