Hello everyone! Welcome to Teach Me, Teacher. This episode is a version of one of my favorite keynotes I do. It's my favorite because it's filled with real world stories about my life and the teachers that saved me growing up. 
Now, I don't mean "saved" in the religious sense. I mean "saved" as in BEING THE DIFFERENCE. 
What did that look like to me? What did it sound like as I navigated growing up around drugs and violence? All of that and more in this talk.
