Ever had a student ask, “You don’t even have your own classroom?” For reading specialists, interventionists, and instructional coaches, that innocent question can hold more weight than you’d think. In this episode, Dr. Gina Pepin shares the joys, challenges, and unique identity of educators whose work happens everywhere—but rarely behind their own decorated door.
With warmth and wisdom, Dr. Pepin explores what it means to teach from hallways, borrowed tables, and small-group rooms—reminding us that a classroom isn’t defined by square footage or bulletin boards, but by intention, presence, and the breakthroughs that happen in quiet corners.
If you’ve ever felt like a “floater,” or wondered if your space really matters, this episode will remind you: your classroom is wherever you create belonging and growth. Tune in for encouragement, connection, and a powerful tribute to the heart of teaching—one small group at a time.

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.
