#169: Best of 2025 Series: I Stopped Trying to Convince Teachers...That’s When Everything Changed
Description
What if the resistance you’re seeing isn’t defiance—it’s a clue?
In this episode, Dr. Donna Spangler shares the coaching breakthrough that changed everything: She stopped trying to convince teachers, and they started showing up with purpose, ownership, and even excitement.
After going through The Resistance Remedy course, Donna realized she wasn’t dealing with a skill gap—she was missing the belief gap. Once she started listening for mindset signals like value, belonging, and ownership, her entire coaching approach shifted. Teachers moved from polite compliance to full engagement. They initiated change. They emailed saying they were excited to teach again.
She stopped relying on instinct and started coaching with intention. That’s when everything changed.
Donna’s biggest realization?
Resistance isn’t a roadblock. It’s a message. And when you know how to listen for it, you don’t just coach better. You coach braver.
