Join us as we dive into the world of coaching and leadership with our special guest, Mary Kingston Roche, a TED talker with a unique perspective on a vital (and unexpected) skill needed to operate under a growth mindset.

Discover the power (and importance) of curiosity as we explore its impact on teacher retention, resilience, efficacy, and school culture. Curiosity is more than just a strategy; it's a philosophy of learning that enables engagement and growth mindset with both students and educators. Mary suggests we start our own personal curiosity practice by telling less and asking more. Replace negative self-talk with curiosity and challenge assumptions with questions. Curiosity can transform how we approach challenges and lead to more impactful outcomes.
