"The Power of a Teacher is a self-care manual for teachers. My purpose in writing was twofold: personal and professional. Personally, I wanted to both thank and encourage teachers by sharing my story. Professionally, as a licensed psychologist, I wanted to play a part in equipping teachers for the long haul in education. My story and thousands of others like mine is inspiring and encouraging, but that inspiration alone will not be enough to fuel a teacher day in and day out over a lifetime calling in education. There is tremendous honor in that life calling, an I wanted to create a resource to empower them to love themselves and take care of themselves, just as they do for so many others each day." ~ Dr. Adam Saenz

"Although we can’t always choose what happens to us, we can always choose how to respond. Children can learn to choose a loving thought over an angry one. When a child realizes that they have the power to positively impact themselves as well as those around them, it is empowering and perpetuates their positive actions and interactions.”
