Stumbling Through Work Podcast

Working in education and programming means stumbling through your everyday — and that’s okay! We love what we do, but let’s be real… sometimes the work works us. Between staff dynamics, family expectations, ever-changing policies, regulations, and the unpredictable magic (and chaos) of children, it’s no wonder we mentally “quit” at least once a day — only to show up again the next morning because our hearts just won’t let us walk away.

Stumbling Through Work is a space for real talk about the early childhood and education field — the laughter, the burnout, the breakthroughs, and everything in between. Here, we share honest stories from classrooms, offices, and playgrounds that remind you: you’re not in this alone.

Each episode explores what it really means to work in education today — from navigating leadership and burnout to rediscovering purpose and community. Because sometimes, the best way to move forward is to stumble together.
