Paradigms of Possibility
Wednesday February 26, 2025 10:15am - 11:15am MST
Educators continue to feel the increasing challenges and pressures of our current education system. Unfortunately, this can at times lead any one of us - once inspired and hope filled - to feel burnt out, question our purpose and ability to impact those we strive to support, and overlook the opportunities right before us. There is another way. We can begin to shift our perspectives. Taking on paradigms of possibility can allow us to remain solution-oriented and see beyond the surface while staying true to ourselves and our students. We don’t need to ignore reality or simply accept toxic positivity, rather we can hold fast to ourselves, our values, and our reason for entering the profession while finding sustainable solutions and making the difference we held tight as we entered this important profession.
