This week I speak with Leann Faint who coming from a broken family herself, inherently understands the struggles of the students she works with. Called to teaching, Leann began her career as an English teacher in a mainstream high school in a low socioeconomic area in Australia. While raising her three children, she moved into Special Education, a field Leann quickly became passionate about. This led to Leann studying her Masters in Special Education and then gaining her role of Head of Special Education. This role prepared her for working with complex youth, families, and outside agencies. In early 2018 Leann felt led to apply for a position at Carinity Education Southside after 20 years in the public sector. For the past five years, she has strongly felt both the burden and the privilege of being the caretaker of the extraordinary young women who are students at Southside. During this time, Leann has completed further study in Trauma Aware Education at the post-graduate level. This is one of the stories I love to share! As we look at her childhood, we are able to see God’s plans to use every experience, both good and bad, to pour into others who are hurting. Leann’s own healing journey now guides the healing path of young girls in their struggles. You won’t want to miss this inspiring episode!
