This week the girls are joined in a spirited discussion with Allisons childhood friend, Katie Kinder! Katie is a married mother of two, who faced a very scary pregnancy; hemorrhaging and fearing losing the baby right in the beginning of her second trimester, that sent her into a deep depression. Even though she was raised in a very health-conscious household, she really dove into that after this incident. She was prescribed an antidepressant that she wasn't comfortable with, so she set out on another path, which sparked lots of changes in her household products, food that she fed her family, and even the way she approached western medicine. Katie is valid in her feelings - and choices - and she has every right to decide these things for herself and her family. As Moms, we are all valid in our feelings and choices and we know what we need in our life. We are huge advocates for making choices for yourself. We are huge supporters of mom utilizing ANY MEANS of helping themselves to be happy. Medication. Herbs. Workouts. Naps. ANYTHING YOU NEED. This is just one story showing another way of doing things :)Thanks for the constant support! We love you all!Follow Katie; @katiekinderphotoFollow us; @villagecommunity @mrsjennieporter @smallspacemommaSupport the show

If you're a history teacher, you've heard about and perhaps have been subject to laws that prohibit you from teaching Critical Race Theory,  or CRT, in your classroom.   You also may have never even heard of CRT until it became a political buzzword used to divide.  And chances are you were not and are not teaching it considering it is an advanced, complex academic theory.  Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw, a law professor at the U.C.L.A. is known for coining the term and CRT points out the existence of racial disparities that have continued over time in the United States and points to systemic issues rather than individual racists that create and uphold these disparities.  CRT also acknowledges that race is a societal construct and is not biological and that those who experience racism should and deserve to have their voices amplified.The first in a series of episodes in which I interview how laws prohibiting teaching "CRT" in schools affects history teachers in different regions among a spectrum of identities, Katie Kinder, a public school teacher in Oklahoma, talks about Oklahoma HB1775.  She gives us her opinion about why it is wrong, how it has affected her teaching, and the ways she is resisting by teaching the truth.Get in touch with Katie:Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/untoldteachingtruthsBuy Katie's Book, Untold Teaching Truths: https://store.bookbaby.com/book/untold-teaching-truths Let's be Friends!Instagram: @teachinghistoryherwayTwitter: http://www.twitter.com/historyherwayFacebook: http://www.facebook.com/teachinghistoryherwayOn the Web/Blog: http://www.teachinghistoryherway.com

As a teacher of the year, top five district finalist, OKC Rotary Teacher of the Month, a guest on the Oklahoma State Department's EdTalk series, and a top 100 educator in Oklahoma on Twitter, Katie has learned a trick or two in the classroom. In fact, she has curated her experience into developing a brand new version of her role as a professional development specialist and has recently released her first book, “Untold Teaching Truths” now available on Amazon. During our conversation, Katie and I took the time to reconnect since our last conversation back in February. In that discussion, she mentioned how she would like to transform her role as a PD specialist into something different as she wanted teachers to see strategies in action. She realized that things aren't always pretty and that educators should see the process and not just the product. Well, someone must have been listening because that is exactly what she is now doing. Extending on this idea, Katie also released her first book that she hopes will help teachers navigate the struggles that we all face. In fact, she talks about avoiding burnout by steering clear of all the small battles but really honing in on three key areas - engagement, safety, and kindness. We even threw some other ideas out into the ether to see if those too would come true. Want to hear more? Let's go.

Welcome to the Counter Narrative Podcast, a show designed to change the way we talk, and think, about education. By sharing stories of successes and triumphs, we aim to challenge the dominant narrative that often negatively portrays our disenfranchised populations. I'm your host, Charles Williams. An educator for 15 years, a current school principal in Chicago, and an educational consultant. Let's get started. In this episode, I chat with Katie Kinder who has been an educator since 2006. She believes that life is fun, and learning should most definitely be fun. As a teacher of the year, top five district finalist, OKC Rotary Teacher of the Month, a guest on the Oklahoma State Department's EdTalk series, and a top 100 educator in Oklahoma on Twitter, Katie has learned a trick or two in the classroom, so be sure to check her out, have some fun, and hook your students from day one! During our conversation, we discussed the importance of allowing students to see themselves in their work. While Katie is a huge fan of Edgar Allen Poe, she also knew that her students should be exposed to poets such as Maya Angelou especially when so many of her students didn't even recognize this prolific author. Like so many others, she pushes back on the idea of doing things the same way simply because and even challenges those using the current pandemic as an excuse for not making needed change. Katie puts actions behinds her words of “don't expect your kids to do what you aren't willing to do yourself” by trying to develop a new district-wide approach to PD - one that would turn her classroom into a living workshop where teachers could witness the implementation of strategies in real-time. I guarantee this episode will have you hooked. Enjoy! I want to thank you for listening to The Counter Narrative Podcast. If you like what you are hearing, please be sure to like and subscribe.
