3 Vital Questions: How Are You Relating?

<p class="MsoNormal">Most workplace drama isn't created by bad people. It's created by good people trying to navigate stress, uncertainty, frustration, and fear.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">In this episode, Michelle explores the second of The 3 Vital Questions: How are you relating? Drawing on the work of David Emerald and Donna Zajonc, she examines the Drama Triangle, the Empowerment Dynamic, and the ways we can become trapped in cycles of blame, helplessness, or rescuing without even realizing it.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Along the way, listeners are invited to consider a powerful question:</p> <p class="MsoNormal">How am I seeing the other person?</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Because often we're not simply responding to reality—we're responding to the stories we've created about ourselves, other people, and the situations we're facing. And those stories shape our relationships, our leadership, and ultimately what becomes possible between us.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">This episode is an invitation to step out of automatic patterns, reconnect to choice, and cultivate relationships rooted in curiosity, accountability, growth, and empowerment.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p> <p>Opt in <a href= "https://oxygenforeducators.com/#read-the-magazine">HERE</a> for a complimentary subscription to the magazine.

Jose Luis Vilson: What Makes an Educator a Professional?

<p>Episode Summary: José Luis Vilson is an educator, researcher, author, and longtime advocate for teacher voice and educational equity. In this conversation, we explore what professionalism in education really means, why relationships are foundational to learning, the emotional realities educators are navigating, and how schools shape not just academic outcomes, but our capacity for empathy, citizenship, and shared humanity.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>Opt in <a href= "https://oxygenforeducators.com/#read-the-magazine">HERE</a> for a complimentary subscription to the magazine.

3 Vital Questions: Where Are You Putting Your Focus?

<p>Many teams are exhausted not because people don't care, but because they're trapped in cycles of reactivity that feel productive but rarely create lasting change.</p> <p><br /> In this first episode of a new three-part series on David Emerald and Donna Zajonc's 3 Vital Questions, Michelle explores how our focus shapes our inner state, our behavior, and ultimately the culture we create around us. This conversation examines the difference between being problem-focused and outcome-focused — and why that distinction matters more than most people realize. This episode is an invitation to notice where your attention naturally goes under stress, and what becomes possible when you begin shifting from reaction to creation.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>OPT IN FOR THE OXYGEN FOR EDUCATORS MAGAZINE:</strong></p> <p>Opt in <a href= "https://oxygenforeducators.com/#read-the-magazine">HERE</a> for a complimentary subscription to the magazine ( <a href= "https://oxygenforeducators.com/#read-the-magazine">https://oxygenforeducators.com/#read-the-magazine</a> )</p> <p>Visit the <a href= "https://oxygenforeducators.com/">Oxygen for Educators</a> website to learn more ( <a href= "https://oxygenforeducators.com/">https://oxygenforeducators.com/ </a> )</p> <div class="MuiBox-root css-4cps79"> </div> <div class="MuiBox-root css-4cps79"> </div> <div class="MuiBox-root css-4cps79"> </div> <div class="MuiBox-root css-4cps79"><span class= "MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bodyMedium css-9y6kil">*********************************************************************************************</span></div> <div class="MuiBox-root css-4cps79"> <p>Follow on Apple: <a href= "https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/oxygen-for-educators/id1775510846">https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/oxygen-for-educators/id1775510846</a></p> <p>Follow on Spotify: <a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/2i21QueuqVqmEPmI7gzFfQ?si=1bef3354bff2402c">https://open.spotify.com/show/2i21QueuqVqmEPmI7gzFfQ?si=1bef3354bff2402c</a></p> <p>Follow on Audible: <a href= "https://www.audible.co.uk/podcast/Oxygen-for-Educators/B0DKL68DLX?source_code=ASSGB149080119000H&share_location=pdp">https://www.audible.co.uk/podcast/Oxygen-for-Educators/B0DKL68DLX?source_code=ASSGB149080119000H&share_location=pdp</a></p> <p>Subscribe on YouTube: <a href= "https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEdbuPy-L7p4RZKZ_VWKCXwK_j8vbjZF2&si=7SHeSWZRllrseygs">https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEdbuPy-L7p4RZKZ_VWKCXwK_j8vbjZF2&si=7SHeSWZRllrseygs</a></p> <p><span class= "MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-bodyMedium css-9y6kil">*********************************************************************************************</span></p> <p>Thank you to our sponsor, Tacky Box.</p> <p>Website: <a href= "https://tackybox.com/">https://tackybox.com/</a></p> <p>Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/tacky_box/">https://www.instagram.com/tacky_box/</a></p> <p>Facebook: <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/TheTackyBox/">https://www.facebook.com/TheTackyBox/</a></p> <p>X: <a href= "https://x.com/thetackybox">https://x.com/thetackybox</a></p> <p>Pinterest: <a href= "https://www.pinterest.com/thetackybox/">https://www.pinterest.com/thetackybox/</a></p> </div>
