Lessons Learned

Hi teacher friends! Welcome to the Lessons Learned Podcast! I’m Becca Foxwell—an award winning first grade teacher turned stay-at-home mama to two truck loving little boys. And I am on a mission to help teachers learn to calm the chaos in their hearts, lives, and classrooms!

It took reaching burn out for me to realize that in order to teach well you have to be well! So, this podcast is for you–you spend all day pouring into the lives of your students and I want to spend each episode pouring back into your heart! Because here’s one of the lessons I’ve learned: you can’t pour from an empty cup!

So, grab your favorite coffee or berry protein smoothie if you’re like me and be ready to dive into a variety of different topics both about the classroom and about life as we focus on the things we can control!

From getting through hard days, to effective classroom management to remembering our way and even on how to become debt free on a teacher’s salary, no topic is off limits! I’m so excited to journey alongside you as we intentionally grow in grace and create a joy filled life together! I’m so glad you’re here!
