TEACHER, YOGI, and MOTHER GRANDSLAMER Meg Lavery is sharing a story with us at Steppenwolf on August 16 at 3:30pm … and you gotta be there. Read allllll about Meg here and GET YOUR TICKETS! We can’t wait to share our stories with you!!
After teaching middle school English for 20 years, Meg “graduated” to high school, where she is a Health teacher and Equity coach. She lives in a conservation community in the north burbs with her wife and menagerie of rescue animals. Meg is passionate about helping young people grow into good humans. She’s also a certified yoga instructor, a Youth Mental Health First Aid Instructor, coaches three sports–and is working on her Ed.D.—because why not toss a doctoral program into the chaos for funsies? Meg tells stories around the Chicago area and won The Moth Chicago GrandSlam in 2023. She has a tendency to tell stories that make people cry—in a cathartic, “I swear I’m fine” kind of way—and dreams of writing a YA series someday
