Building Strong Communities: Parenting, Leadership, and Showing Up for Your People with Sarah Wall

The Power of the Matriarch Conference: www.lovelizzy.coIn this episode of the Love, Lizzy Podcast we meet up with Sarah Wall. She is an educator in Portland, Oregon, a mamma of two boys, and an all-around special human. What I thought would be a discussion on our education system turned into a deep dive on vulnerability, how the smallest actions you take today can build the strongest communities, and ways we can bring the men with us into the ever-changing landscape that is leadership in our homes. I think this might be one of our most value-packed episodes yet. If you have been feeling like you are alone carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders, or that you are stuck trying to parent your kids in a social media-driven reality, there is so much wisdom in the lessons Sarah shares about working with students and parenting her own children. We paint a picture of what a flexible, resilient world, and education system can look like and ponder the necessity for values-centric, resource-sharing, compassionate communities. No matter what is happening around us, this conversation will leave you feeling like you have what you need to be an incredible human and show up for your people, even when you fumble and make mistakes. There is no perfect parent, teacher, or human. So let's lay down the pressure to be perfect and embrace the attributes that actually connect us. If you have been looking for a respite from the chaos in the world, grab a tea or put on your walking shoes and let us take you to a beautiful place of possibility and hope.
