The Kindness Podcast Episode 16: Ms. Liz


There are certain people who come into our lives and make us better. Liz Schwarzel is one of those people. She’s a third grade teacher in Athens, Ohio. My son, Charlie had her as a teacher three years ago, and if I’m awfully lucky, Ben will have her next year. The kids affectionately call her Ms. Liz, but I get to call her Friend.

I asked Liz to come on The Kindness Podcast to share some thoughts on the kindness she sees happening in the classroom, but also to talk about one particular act of kindness that caught her off-guard.

I hope you enjoy Episode 16 of The Kindness Podcast, featuring Ms. Liz!
