In this first cup of Season 2, we sit down with Michaela Morgan in the US – a sixth-grade social studies teacher, grad student, comedy writer, and all-around gem. From managing a classroom in the aftermath of COVID-19 to navigating life with ADHD, Michaela opens up about the real challenges (and quiet joys) of modern teaching.
We talk about identity – what it means to show up as your full self at work, especially as an LGBTQ+ educator – and why finding community matters more than ever. Michaela shares honest reflections on being the youngest of five, her love of coffee culture, and why it’s okay to just have hobbies without turning them into side hustles.
This episode is full of heart, laughter, and life lessons from someone who’s teaching the next generation while figuring it out herself. Grab a warm brew and lean in – it’s good stuff.
