Episode 12 | Writing practice can change the world: teaching and writing with Celeste Kirsh

BigTreeMind with Lana Lontoš

“Why do we have writing as human beings? It’s to express, to communicate and to design other future possibilities”. C.K. Celeste Kirsh is a former middle school teacher. She's the host of the most excellent podcast called Teaching Tomorrow (https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/teaching-tomorrow-podcast/id1433809331), and she is a first-year Ph.D. student at OISE. We talk about nourishing imagination and confidence in children and adults and how the process of writing can change the world. Celeste also speaks about her writing process and how different parts of her being (planner, creative, critic and editor) play into the process. This conversation touches upon school curriculums, creative writing, parts therapy, meditation, the art of good conversation, and the process of putting one foot in front of the other. I hope that you enjoy it.
