Roots L.E.A.D. to Results

https://feed.podbean.com/labineverylesson/feed.xml

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.

Tuesday Jul 09, 2024

As an Enneagram Type 3 Achiever, I thrive on setting and achieving goals, sometimes to a fault. To balance this while using student-centered teaching strategies to a foster positive classroom culture, I’ve embraced two essential core values that I believe are perfect for science teachers.

In this video, I’ll share how these values guide my teaching practice, help me avoid burnout, and inspire my students to love learning.

I’ll discuss the importance of experimenting with teaching strategies to keep things fresh, connect you with your students, and build a thriving classroom culture.

I'll also share with you some of my tried-and-true positive talk for challenging the voices in your head that keep you feeling fearful about making changes.
