And I talk about it in today’s episode.Clifford Stoll is an astronomer, physicist, and educator extraordinaire. In this episode, l venture into the depths of his dynamic TED Talk, "The Call to Learn."Today, I share my three major takeaways that reshaped my perspective on teaching, learning, and the beauty of perpetual curiosity. In this episode, I also mention a FREE four-video training series I created that will help you develop a sense of what's next for you. As an empty nester parent, I know there’s a tendency to look back to what we’ve accomplished. We raised a kid or kids, and send them out into the world. But I’m not going to be a parent again. And I don’t want to sit around and wait to be grandparent. I want to go out and do something else. If you’re like me, you might be trying to decide what’s next for yourself. I’ve created this four-part video series where I talk about how to figure out what’s next for you.
