Episode 3: Dark Triad Admins. and Empathic Teachers

from Teacher Misery · host Jane Morris

We welcome Milly from the ENM podcast and discuss why she left teaching; how her principal was a psychopath; what a "dark triad" personality is; the guilt and lack of support teachers are given when they want or need to quit; whether or not we were willing to hold our pee all day; and the psychology behind why certain people are drawn to service jobs like teaching and if it is connected to childhood trauma.
