Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Bisa Lewis. 🎯 Purpose of the Interview To spotlight the challenges and opportunities within the teaching profession, especially post-COVID, and to empower educators to leverage their skills for financial growth beyond the classroom. Dr. Besa shares her journey, insights, and strategies for educators to supplement their income while maintaining their passion for teaching. 🗝️ Key Takeaways 1. Educators Are Undervalued Yet Essential Teachers are underpaid and often disrespected despite their critical role in shaping future generations. COVID briefly highlighted their importance, but systemic undervaluation persists. 2. Mental Wellness and Structure Matter Dr. Bisa emphasizes morning meditation, prayer, and silence to manage stress and set the tone for her day. She avoids early meetings and uses Mondays and Fridays for planning and reflection. 3. Education Credentials Open Doors Dr. Bisa holds four degrees and explains that credentials often determine access to influential spaces. Degrees help gain respect and credibility, especially in leadership and public speaking roles. 4. The Paid Method for Educators Dr. Besa developed the PAID Method to help educators monetize their skills: P – Prospects: Who will pay for your skills? A – Allies: Who can support your journey? I – Information: What do you need to know? D – Dollars: How much can you earn? 5. Teachers Can Earn Beyond the Classroom Through coaching, curriculum development, speaking engagements, and grant writing. Dr. Bisa’s curriculum is used in 30 states, showcasing how educators can scale their expertise. 6. AI and Education AI should be embraced, not feared. It won’t replace teachers but will transform education by shifting focus from theory to practice. Educators must adapt and use technology to enhance learning and remain competitive. 7. Cultural and Economic Empowerment Dr. Bisa advocates for Black educators and communities to overcome systemic barriers by embracing innovation. She warns against fear-based resistance to technology and encourages strategic adoption. 💬 Notable Quotes “It’s time to stop reading other people’s success stories and start living your own.” – Rushion McDonald “Sometimes those papers just help you get in the room.” – Dr. Bisa “Stop being afraid, stop being oppressed, and make sure that whatever comes out, you figure out how you can use it.” – Dr. Bisa “Guide learning. That is what we should do.” – Dr. Bisa “Consistency is what people gain trust in.” – Rushion McDonald 🌐 Resources Mentioned Website: DrBisa.com Podcast: The Paid Educator Podcast Social Media: Consistent handles across platforms under “DrBisa” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
