ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Tragedy can bring some of the most painful moments in a person’s life. Some people know this all too well. In this week’s episode of Authentic Educators, we are joined by Mark O’Brien, founder of growthandgoodness.com as well as the author of the book Crashing. I love you. Forgive me to discuss how he was able to find incredible purpose in his life after facing incredible trauma. Our conversation highlights two specific tactics that not only educators can use in the classroom but also anyone can use in their lives to create a culture of community that is best equipped to process the unfortunately inevitable lows of life.
