I’m SO excited for you! Do you know why? Because we’ve got something for you in this episode that will change the way you think about teaching and life!
Last week we did a special FREE open coaching call with our certified teacher life coach, Chrissy Nichols. This call was for anyone that wanted to come and it ended up being SO amazing. We discussed teacher mindset & the 5-Step Framework that will CHANGE the Way You Think About Teaching (And Life!). So we turned this amazing Coaching Call into today’s episode all about the 5-Step Framework!
When I discovered this 5-Step Framework almost 3 years ago… it was a game changer for me. I wish I could go back and “discover” it all over again. It was so fun and special to be able to watch hundreds of other teachers tune in and watch as four other teachers experienced this framework for the first time! We got to watch them start changing the way they think about teaching and life.
This 5 step framework is SUPER simple- once you learn it, you can’t UN-learn it!

Key points about teacher mindset from our live coaching call episode on the 5 Step Framework:
- We discuss how creating a mindset shift is beneficial for not just your teacher life, but your life in general
- Teacher Jess is coached on how to be confident and set boundaries with a confrontational colleague
- Teacher Ashley is coached on dealing with a loud and distracting student and learned ways to respond more positively and less emotionally
- Admin Seth is coached on staying positive and realistic when dealing with a difficult teacher
