Welcome to Roots L.E.A.D. to Results—a weekly podcast that brings soul-deep encouragement to educators who are tired of surviving and ready to serve from a place of alignment, clarity, and conviction.
I’m Lisa Karosas—science teacher, curriculum designer, and believer that classrooms change when teachers are rooted.
This podcast is my own accountability check-in: a chance to slow down, reflect on the bigger picture, and disciple through my daily work right alongside you.
Each week follows a simple rhythm—L.E.A.D.—
-
L: Let Go & Lead Yourself
-
E: Establish Rhythms that Sustain You
-
A: Align with What Actually Matters
-
D: Disciple Through Your Daily Work
Through scripture, storytelling, and reflections on the realities of teaching, this podcast will help you reconnect with your calling, rediscover your voice, and refocus your energy on what matters most—not just in your classroom, but in your life.
Whether you're a science teacher or not, if you're craving grounded leadership, grace-filled persistence, and a reminder that you're not alone—you’re in the right place.
Let’s grow the roots that lead to lasting results.

Continual improvement only comes from regular reflection.
When science teachers lecture, the only aspects of their instruction upon which they can reflect include those dictated by the content ... what they say or how they say it.
In a student-centered science classroom, teacher reflection can and should happen at all four stages in the teaching and learning process -- from defining a clear purpose, to developing that amazing interactive science lesson plan, through delivery of that lesson plan and analysis of the student outcome artifacts that are produced.
For more fundamentals of reflection and suggestions for how to improve or increase the frequency of your science teacher reflection practice, listen in!
