My new audio course is live on Listenable
I’m so excited to let you know my new audio course ’10 Pieces of Advice You’d Like to Have as a Child’ has been published on Listenable.
Listenable is just like an audio version of Netflix. You pay a small monthly fee and get access to hundreds of courses in a variety of categories.
I was thrilled when I was asked to create a course for them and being an audio platform I loved the similarities with the podcast world.
My course has twelve, 3-4 min lessons and it shares some of the best advice I have heard from guests on the podcast.
In order to hit the ground running I have a favour to ask.
Could you please spare 3.07 mins to listen to the first lesson of the course (it is absolutely FREE) so the platform can get some immediate listening traction which will help promote the course to their subscribers.
As with so much online content it is all about algorithms and the more people who listen in the first few days the better.
There is no expectation to sign up (unless you want to) and you can press play and listen straight from the website.
You can find it by using my direct link www.educationonfire.com/listenable. This is also the best way to share it with anyone you think might be interested in knowing more about Listenable.
Thank you in advance if you can spare 3.07 mins of your time to support me and press play.

214: Your 3 Eyes with Dr. Megan Sweet
Dr. Megan Sweet is an author, speaker, and systems-thinker who has been in education for more than twenty-five years. Through her extensive experience leading personal and system-wide change, Megan has come to believe that when we approach our challenges from the inside-out, by building a supportive and heart-centered connection with ourselves first, we have the confidence and resilience to tackle the important work of transforming our lives and communities.
The 3 Eyes support us to see our lives, our thoughts, and our experiences more clearly.
When we use them in school, they help us to understand our context in more depth.
Megan’s Philosophy
I believe that the most powerful forces for innovation in our schools are the people–educators, students, and families.
I KNOW true change is possible if we invest in our educators and school communities and then get out of their way.

213: Educational travel with Garrett & Mandi Oler
Garrett & Mandi Oler discuss how travel and enrolling their children into a bilingual school has enhanced their educational experiences, confidence and world citizenship.
Garrett & Mandi are a married couple that love to help people travel abundantly – and affordably – with their families. They cringe every time they hear parents say that travel is a luxury only for the “lucky,” and are on a mission to change that mindset.
We discuss:
- Making friends abroad
- Learning in a foreign language
- Whole family trip planning
- The skills learned from foreign travel
- Know what you want to experience in trip
- Know the cost of a trip
Through their online course, Frequent Traveler Academy, they significantly shorten the learning curve and effectively cut through the clutter of rewards programs, frequent flier status and budgeting tactics so that students know what to immediately focus on to give them the best results (including free travel).
Between them and their students, they have amassed over two million credit card points, flown over 500,000 miles and visited 10 different countries – all using the simple strategies that they figured out by trial and error.
Garret and Mandi live in Utah with their two sons, who love to join them on their adventures – and even planned a few of their own!
