See It To Be It

In this episode of the F.L.O.W. Podcast, we welcome Dr. Sharon H. Porter, an inspiring educator, whose journey began after a memorable experience hearing her fourth grade teacher read Judy Blume's Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing.  That initial spark led her to become a fourth-grade teacher in Charlotte, NC.  Through the years she formed deep connections with students and maintains a cherished drawing from a former second-grade student.  Although Dr. Sharon never envisioned herself as a school leader, a move to the Washington, DC area shifted her perspective and encouraged her to pursue higher education. She discovered a love for media after completing her dissertation, and that was the springboard into becoming an author and podcast host.  In this episode, we explore: The power of education in shaping lives and communities The importance of mentorship and representation Sharon’s commitment to building a pipeline of teacher leaders and principals Connect with Dr. Sharon:  Website: www.drsharonhporter.com www.vandpmagazine.com LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/sharonhargroporter Linktree: linktr.ee/sharonhporter  Connect with Angela: Website: www.angelavharris.com Instagram: @coachangelavharris   @theflowpodcastwithangela  LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/angelavharris   Thank you for listening to the F.L.O.W.
