Description: 
Mindfulness and math are an unlikely pairing of topics, but after this episode you’ll understand their connection. Today, I’m sharing how personal development leads to professional payoffs. Connecting with yourself helps you connect with your students, and inner personal work can lead to better outcomes for your students. When we’re young, we don’t choose our own beliefs and much of our unconscious programming revolves around mistaken beliefs. The truth is that these limiting beliefs aren’t serving you. In this episode, you’ll hear how I discovered my own mistaken beliefs and what I’m doing to CHOOSE new, empowering beliefs to live by. Listen in to learn how becoming more conscious made me a better educator and how it can do the same for you.
