195. A Simple and Effective Process for Parent Communication With Guest Mandy Farrar

Confession time: I’ve been gatekeeping this conversation with Mandy Farrar because it’s that perfect for the start of the school year. Mandy, a high school chemistry and physics teacher, shares her simple yet highly effective system for parent communication, built from her own early struggles and refined into a clear, repeatable process. From starting the year with positive outreach to using email templates and data-driven language for tough conversations, this episode is packed with actionable strategies to make parent communication feel manageable and meaningful!
