Episode Highlights:

• Meet Your Host: Tiffiny Webster, co-founder of TeacherBusiness.com, with 25 years of experience as a K12 teacher and administrator, and former K-8 principal who rebuilt a program from the ground up, shares her journey of discovering her superpower.

3 Clues to Discover Your Superpower:

1. Who You Can Bring Together:

• Identify the group you naturally gather and support. Whether it’s your math department, art teachers, or educators with a shared interest, the group you rally can point to your superpower.

• Example: Tiffiny found she could build connections between teachers and parents, creating a supportive educational community.

2. Gravitation Toward Mastery:

• Notice what you’re constantly refining and improving. What do you practice repeatedly, creating methods and systems to perfect?

• Example: Tiffiny honed her leadership and community-building skills, which became a core part of her superpower.

3. Getting Results:

• Pay attention to where you see results for yourself or others. Successful outcomes are strong indicators of your specialized skill set.

• Example: Tiffiny’s ability to cultivate a thriving school community showed her that this was a valuable part of her superpower.

Bonus Clue:

• Creating a Self-Sustaining Community:

• If the group you gather starts to form relationships, support each other, and collaborate without your constant prompting, you’ve built something truly powerful. This shows you’ve created a community that enhances the lives of its members.

Recap:

• Identify Who You Can Bring Together: Look for the group you connect with and support.

• Mastery Matters: What do you naturally practice and perfect?

• Results Speak Volumes: Observe the outcomes of your efforts for yourself and others.
