Episode 8: In this episode of The Educator Sanctuary, Lea dives into the power of small, consistent actions and how they lead to major breakthroughs. She shares her own journey of feeling stuck and overwhelmed, only to realize that progress doesn’t come from massive leaps—it comes from tiny, intentional steps. Through personal stories, relatable analogies, and actionable takeaways, this episode challenges you to stop waiting for the "perfect time" and start moving forward, one small step at a time.
