Lean Into You

A self-care podcast for educators

Who you are outside of the classroom is who you show up as inside the classroom. That is why our primary goal is to meet you where you're at as a human being first and educator second.

Episode Description

Cas Holman is a toy designer and play advocate who has spent her entire career creating products that encourage openness and free play. She has worked with Rockwell Group, has been a professor at the Rhode Island School of Design, and was recently featured on Netflix's Abstract: The Art of Design.

In part two of our conversation, we talk about how we can begin to break open the boxes we often put ourselves in, and how that might be beneficial to us as adults. To find out more about Cas' work, you can visit her website at:
