This week and next week (we had A LOT to discuss!) you're going to hear from Kwame Sarfo-Mensah, a 15-year veteran urban educator and the founder of Identity Talk Consulting, LLC., an independent educational consulting firm that provides professional development and consulting services to K-12 school districts, educators, colleges & universities and educational non-profit organizations. He is also the author of two books: "Shaping the Teacher Identity: 8 Lessons That Will Help Define the Teacher in You" and "From Inaction to 'In Action': Creating a New Normal for Urban Educators".
We begin our conversation by discussing the journey from passion project to edupreneurship, harnessing your drive to make an impact, and staying true to yourself and your mission in the midst of all the noise in the online space.
Kwame also shares about his upcoming virtual summit, Stay True to the Teacher in You. Check it out - you won't want to miss it!
