Moving to Education on Fire. LF056
I have decided to bring my ‘podcast network’ to an end. Following lots of thought I believe the best way to support you and me moving forward is to simplify what I produce and bring everything together under one roof – Education on Fire.
I am amalgamating this Learning on Fire podcast and Education on Fire podcast.
I will continue to produce the same quality interviews and mix it with child focused educational content to help you support the children in your lives to be authentic, inspired and live life on their terms.
This includes creating a new community of people to lead the way as part of our campfire elders.

Thank you and Merry Christmas. LF055
Thank you so much for listening during 2019. Have a very Merry Christmas and we look forward to continuing our journey in 2020.
Leading by example with Dr. Martha D Saunders. LF054
Dr. Martha Saunders joins me on the Learning on Fire podcast and explores the most important learning and educational moments that shaped her life.
Dr. Martha Saunders is the sixth President of the University of West Florida. In her 30+ years in higher education, she has served in academic and leadership roles at universities in Florida, Georgia, Wisconsin and Mississippi.
Her area of academic expertise is in public relations and crisis communication, for which she has won numerous awards. Dr. Saunders established the UWF Innovation Institute, the Center for Research and Economic Opportunity, University College, Center for Cybersecurity and the Office of Equity, Diversity and International Programming. She oversaw the reorganization of the University’s colleges, and under her guidance, UWF established two new colleges—the Usha Kundu College of Health and the Hal Marcus College of Science and Engineering.
Saunders’ vision for UWF is for it to grow beyond its beginnings as a regional comprehensive university and be seen as a leader in innovation and cutting edge academic programs. She plans to build on the University’s strengths and its undergraduate traditions, while creating programs that will attract the faculty and research funding needed to make the leap to the next level.
As an entrepreneurial leader, Saunders is passionate about creating innovative solutions to deal with the dynamic challenges facing higher education. As a change-maker, she drives action behind these solutions to propel higher education into the future.
