Lessons That Last
Quitting, Connecting, and Honest Advice
Students make decisions, often with limited perspective and experience, which have a long term impact on their lives. How do we offer advice in affirming and helpful ways? In this episode, Julie and Laura talk about the power of nonjudgmental, honest advice. Marvin's story about Mr. Schafer is the focus of the episode, and it highlights the power of staying a little longer and trying a little more. If you've been thinking about how to gently guide your students, this episode is for you! And let's all embrace the power of just one more.
You can find Marvin's story (and all the stories we share on the pod) in the Lessons That Last book, It's available at your favorite bookseller. Check it out on Amazon here: https://bit.ly/3OiZr38
