In this episode, Vanessa explores the growing gap between teachers’ expectations and the realities of today’s education system. She addresses the frustrations many teachers feel working in an environment that can sometimes feel like “child storage” rather than a place for true learning, where policies like social promotion often outweigh actual educational goals. Today’s mental health tip emphasizes accepting the realities of the teaching profession while finding ways to create meaningful change from outside the system. For those looking toward a brighter future, Vanessa reminds listeners to plan ahead and make a strategy to vote, underscoring the power of choice in creating change.

She also discusses the importance of adapting to the times, noting the growth of fields like AI and data science, especially as traditional roles evolve or disappear. For teachers considering new career paths, Vanessa offers guidance and support to help them take the next steps toward a fulfilling future.
