Organizing Your Paperwork: Get Rid of Your Piles. This is episode 736 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast.
Do you make piles of paper and you swear that you can find whatever you need? The piles keep growing and growing and you start realizing that you really don't know where anything is located. That is if you are actually honest with yourself - you know that you are lying to you.
On this episode I share my thoughts about getting out from under those piles. Afterall, I was one of those crazy pile builders and now I am very proud to share that I no longer create stacks of paper.
Get rid of those piles.
Thanks for listening!

Marilyn Raichle - Don't Walk Away: A Care Partner's Journey. Enhancing the Lives of People Living with Dementia and their Care Partners. This is episode 732 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast.
Marilyn Reichle, author of Don’t Walk Away, grew up in the shadow of Alzheimer's. Nearly everyone in her father’s family and many in her mother’s had developed the disease. But Raichle became transformed in her views towards those living with dementia, inspiring the launch of a book and several non-profits that helps — and celebrates — those living with the memory-robbing disease.
Raichle began her career in the theatre, founding the Seattle International Children's Festival. She served for 11 years at North America’s largest international festival for children, introducing children to world culture through the performing arts.
She then became the founding executive director of American Voices for nine years, building an informed, engaged, and good-humored community. In 2007, she received a Master of Public Administration from Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government. She received her BA from the University of Washington.
Upon returning to Seattle, her career changed when she became the family caregiver for her parents, both of whom were developing dementia. In 2010, inspired by her mother's newfound artistic ability, she founded The Art of Alzheimer's, celebrating the creativity of those living with dementia and the power of the arts to enrich and empower their lives.
In 2019 she became the Executive Director of Maude's Awards for Innovation in Alzheimer's Care, celebrating and rewarding innovative programs and practices of care that are enhancing the lives of people living with dementia, and their care partners.
Our focus today is Marilyn's book - Don't Walk Away: A Care Partner's Journey.
So much to learn and think about.
