You know what's really been bugging me lately? This unwarranted negativity and judgmental attitude towards educators. I've personally had negative comments on my ads of people saying things like, "There's already too many educators," "Everyone thinks they can be educators" and even, "People who can't make it as photographers will educate" and none of that is true.
People seem to think that in order to be a good educator, you have to have a ton of followers and be Insta-famous, but that's not what makes a good educator. What makes a good educator is someone who loves teaching and is passionate about helping others succeed.
Because of the judgment and negativity around this, people are scared to become coaches, and it shouldn't be that way. I want to share the things that I truly believe make a good educator, the struggles many of us face with imposter syndrome, and why the low-volume coaching programs you create will have so much more impact than high-volume courses.
In this episode, we chat about:
- The negativity and judgment I have experienced as an educator
- The value of learning from those who are just one step ahead
- Imposter syndrome and overcoming the negativity
- Having a variety of teaching styles in education
- Low-volume coaching vs. high-volume coaching

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
