Coronavirus Coping Stories: Cara Greene Epstein, Filmmaker, Teaching Artist and now...Schoolteacher

The DarbiCast

A show mostly about coping through the coronavirus crisis. Each episode, Darbi will talk with someone in her network about how the coronavirus is affecting their work, life and health. She'll also be dropping in the occasional free workout or meditation to help you through these tough times. Today's episode features teaching artist and mom, Cara Greene Epstein. She talks about what it's like to suddenly be a schoolteacher and what it's like in her north Chicago neighborhood. But before that! "Three Good Things," in which, every show, she shares three things that made her smile during these shitty times. Links to today's good things right here: 1. Boss Bitch Fight Challenge.
