As teachers, we constantly seek new ideas, strategies, and inspiration—but when does learning become a crutch instead of a tool for action?
In this episode of Deep Roots, Flowers, and Fruit, we'll reflect on the balance between curiosity and implementation. From professional development to classroom experimentation, we'll explore how embracing the scientific mindset—observing, questioning, testing, and iterating—can transform both teaching and personal growth.
Through a faith-inspired lens, I'll also shares how my own “wilderness” moment led me to shift from consuming knowledge to stepping forward in action.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of learning and procrastinating on taking action, this episode will motivate you to take that next step!
Listen in to discover: ✅ Why endless professional development isn’t enough—action is key ✅ How to embrace your classroom as a laboratory of learning ✅ The connection between curiosity, service, and scientific practice ✅ A faith-based perspective on finding clarity in the wilderness of teaching
Join us for a thought-provoking discussion that will challenge you to step out, experiment, and grow.
