Episode 29: Eloise Morgan

Welcome to Episode 29 of The Teachback.  It has been a minute since I last had a chance to post one of these conversations and I'm thrilled to be seizing this opportunity to get back on the proverbial horse in 2024. This episode was recorded last summer--a season of waves and change--when my former student, Eloise, and I had a chance to sit down and catch up about her life since we shared a classroom together. Eloise's mindful enthusiasm for life hasn't wavered since 8th Grade and I just delight in the messages and wisdom she shares here. 

 

This episode is brought to you by the following excerpt, shared by Eloise, from Heidi Priebe's powerful book, This is Me Letting You Go.

“Just be the freaking person who cares more. Be the person who tries harder, loves stronger, gives more of a shit than all of the half-alive people who surround them. Be the person who answers their messages, shows up to their commitments and doesn’t leave others hanging or guessing at their eternally vague intentions.”
