The Pit Pony Podcast - Life After Teaching

018 - Pit Pony Jonny Millard - Chapter 3 - Reaching Out For Help

Sharon Cawley and Sarah Dunwood Season 1 Episode 18

In Chapter 3, Jonny Millard takes a courageous step as he reaches out for help, sharing his growing struggles with colleagues and leadership. Determined to salvage the passion he once had for teaching, Jonny recounts his desperate attempts to address the toxic environment that was taking a toll on his mental health.

As the story unfolds, Jonny paints a vivid picture of his internal battle, the systemic issues within his school, and the harsh realities of a profession that often fails to support its own. 

This chapter is a heartfelt exploration of vulnerability, resilience, and the limits of endurance in the face of adversity.
