"Standing in your power" with Tem Ezimokhai

Today's episode is an extra special one. We have Tem Ezimokhai from Helping Teachers Thrive. Not only is she a full time secondary school teacher but she hosts and produces her own podcast called Helping Teachers Thrive. It's a biweekly podcast set out to help fill in the gaps university doesn’t cover. After noticing how much new teachers were struggling with both the overwhelming amount of new responsibility and their own mental health, she wanted to create a space where they can come and get advice on things like classroom management, neurodivergence, and even their own well being. In today's episode of Scale Her Up, Tem speaks about her own personal journey as a teacher, from the imposter syndrome she faced, to now commanding the classroom with confidence. She also speaks about the importance of a schedule, how to professionally say no, and her best tips for teacher well being. Whether you're in the education sector or not, this is truly an episode full of some much helpful advice and inspiring words- truly not an episode you want to miss.
