Episode 134 – Lindsey Wander

Welcome to another episode of The HERO Show. I am your host Richard Matthews, (@AKATheAlchemist) and you are listening to Episode 134 with Lindsey Wander — Empowering Students of All Abilities to Succeed in School, Work, & Life.

Lindsey Wander is the Founder and CEO of WorldWise Tutoring — An educational system whose main goal is to teach students HOW to learn. By learning and practicing self-monitoring, organizational, and study techniques. Through these students will gain the tools to become successful life-long learners.

Here’s just a taste of what we talked about today:

  • Lindsey discussed what it means to be known for using her background with her own educational experiences.
  • “All ages, all abilities, and all subjects,” is what Lindsey has always said. With the ongoing pandemic, that is really being put to the test.
  • Next, we talked about hiring staff and how important it is to follow your intuition after getting the chance to speak with applicants personally.
  • Richard shares one of his favorite metaphors for work-life balance —stretching the rubber band.
  • We take a peek at Lindsey’s multiple career changes that ultimately led her to fall in love with teaching.
  • Lindsey explains that educators are not burned out by teaching kids. What works the fingers to the bone is the red tape and the hoops. Educators want to teach kids their way because they know every child learns differently. A single school system is simply not a package for everyone.
  • Next, we address the fact that technology has grown but teaching methods have not adjusted accordingly. There are so many opportunities to innovate teaching through homeschooling yet administrators are missing the point — mimicking what happens in the classroom at home.
  • The number one priority for Lindsey is to teach kids the way she wants and always with fun in mind. Her experience has taught her that kids learn better and exceed all expectations when they enjoy the lessons and have lots of fun.
  • If children get excited about learning, they will feel confident, they become more independent, and they begin to explore new learning opportunities. This is how Lindsey nurtures lifelong learners.
  • One of Lindsey’s superpowers is having a strong intuition. This helps her bring on amazing staff members. And having the ability to read people has enabled Lindsey to assess kids quickly and accurately.
  • The world is a blend of different learning styles. Lindsey talks about the importance of becoming aware of your dominant learning style and utilizing strategies from other learning styles.
  • Next, Lindsey shares significant realizations about negative self-talk — that inner dialogue — and how crucial it is to guide a child’s inner dialogue to something more positive.
  • We talked about how struggle and failure are inherent in a child’s growth and success. Realize that mistakes are vital learning opportunities.
  • Richard and Lindsey talk about how vital their calendars are in running their businesses and how far ahead they generally plan events.
  • All of us have a sense of intuition but some of us suppress that. Lindsey shares how a person’s gut feeling can be powerful. “If something does not feel right, do not do it!”

The HERO Challenge

Today on the show, Lindsey Wander challenged Sarah, a personal trainer, to be a guest on The HERO Show. Lindsey thinks that Sarah is a fantastic person to interview because when she got laid off at a new job she stood up and completely built an entirely new brand, instead of mopping on the couch watching Netflix.

Today, Sarah has a massive following. For Lindsey, it’s been really cool to see someone with no business background run a thriving business.
