There are a lot of 'ingredients' in most forest educator programs that make up the bulk of the experiences.  Crafts. Skills. Games.  Challenges.  Free Play.  Exploration. (and more). Viewed as a recipe, they would be the big items in whatever dish you're making.  They'd take up a lot of space in the pot or pan, and they would get the most attention. But there are also the smaller ingredients in the mix, that are often completely overlooked and seldom thought about, that are critical to making the dish come together, and work, like salt, or seasonings, or baking powder.  When these are missing, it is a big deal. When it comes to crafting and inviting students to have an 'Experience' in our programs, the little things matter in the same way.  Our stories are important, and how we frame the lessons, or time spent together, and our intent, as well. This episode explores some of these small but mighty 'secret ingredients' that pack a lot of power and energy, especially around the ideas of inspiration, mastery, pushing beyond our perceived limits and the value of focus and attention to detail.  These have the capacity to provide some incredibly long lasting impact for students and educators alike.
