Ep. 686: Discontented Optimism – How A Teacher Freed Himself From School (With Joel Bein)

Joel Bein is back for a follow-up conversation about his exit from school teaching, and his transition to working with our friends at Crash.co.

Joel last appeared on episode 669, where we introduced his story. Today we’ll talk about his journey in more detail. An important feature of our discussion is what Joel refers to as Discontented Optimism – as a teacher, allowing himself to hate school, to NOT tolerate it, AND empowering himself to change the situation.

Towards the end of the show, we’ll also talk about a new mini-course Joel put together for Crash: Job Hunting 101
