If you find yourself deep in the trenches of teacher burnout, you're not alone. The demands of modern education can feel like an ever-expanding tree, with branches of stress, anxiety, and exhaustion stretching in all directions. Perhaps you've tried various strategies, self-care routines, or even sought advice from colleagues, and yet, the burnout persists. If this sounds familiar, I have an important revelation for you: it's highly likely that you've been treating the symptoms rather than addressing the true core cause of your burnout.

In this episode, we will dig deep to discuss how teacher burnout is like a tree with branches of stress, anxiety, and exhaustion stretching in all directions, but most importantly how the solutions to your burnout struggles are found in understanding the root reasons behind your exhaustion and overwhelm. We'll dive into the multiple factors that contribute to burnout, emphasizing that it's rarely just one thing causing your stress, anxiety, and burnout. Instead of viewing it as an insurmountable mountain, we'll show you how to break it down into manageable pieces and provide you with a free tool to making lasting change.

Are you a teacher who finds themselves burning the midnight oil, grading papers, and crafting lesson plans long after the school day officially ends? If so, rest assured, you're not alone. In the world of education, it's all too common to unintentionally become the teacher who takes work home, spending precious hours each night immersed in grading or planning. It wasn't in your initial career plans, was it?

Recent statistics reveal a stark reality. Four out of five teachers report that their workload has increased – a fundamental shift in the daily life of educators. Some teachers are grappling with as many as 27 additional hours of work without any increase in pay, which is time taken away from personal lives, hobbies, and well-deserved relaxation.

Imagine having just 30 minutes of planning time each day – it becomes virtually impossible to efficiently handle all your tasks. And what's the consequence of this relentless cycle? It often leads to teachers becoming workaholics.

That's why in this episode, we're here to explore why teachers often become workaholics, how to identify if you're one of them, and most importantly, the actionable steps you can take today to reclaim your work-life balance and reignite your passion for teaching, even amidst rising demands and responsibilities.

Are you feeling the weight of the teaching world on your shoulders, especially when it comes to those dreaded sick days? As teachers, we've all been there – waking up feeling under the weather, yet the thought of calling in sick seems more daunting than sucking it up in the classroom. But here's the thing: it's time to break this cycle of overwhelm and guilt.

In this episode, we address the common struggle teachers face when it comes to taking sick days. The pressure to power through illness, the guilt of taking time off, and the overwhelming task of preparing detailed sub plans can leave educators feeling trapped in a toxic cycle of self-sacrifice. We explore the reasons why teachers often get sick at the most inconvenient times, such as before, during, and after breaks, and offer practical tips to manage this without adding extra stress. From understanding the impact of chronic stress on our immune systems to automating sub plans and empowering students to take responsibility for their learning, we delve into essential strategies for reducing the overwhelm around sick days. Join us as we challenge the narrative, provide actionable steps, and empower educators to prioritize their well-being in a system that often demands self-sacrifice.

We all want to be the best teacher we can possibly need. But meeting every student's unique needs can take a toll on us and lead to burnout, especially if our students who are struggling start to act out. 

In this episode, Alyson Young is joining me to chat about the challenges students with ADHD and Dyslexia face in traditional classroom settings and how teachers can best support these students. She also shares insights into the misconceptions surrounding ADHD and Dyslexia, how to identify struggling students, ways to support both younger and older students. She also dives into the importance of building relationships with students and how teachers can better equip themselves to help their students with ADHD or Dyslexia.

Alyson Young is the founder of The Learning Lab. She has a rich education, psychology, and sociology background, and has taught in public, private, and charter schools. Through her diverse experience, she's witnessed many intelligent children struggle due to inappropriate instruction, leading to frustration, anxiety, and sometimes behavioral problems. This realization sparked her passion to explore the Science of Reading, an area that was often neglected in traditional education systems. Alyson understood that these children weren't struggling because they weren't smart or trying hard enough, but because the educational approach just wasn't aligned with their unique learning styles. Determined to change this, she set out to create The Learning Lab, a place where children's learning styles were acknowledged and embraced. Known for being a mover and a shaker, her primary mission is to uncover how each child learns best and then devise a tailored plan to help them experience success.

Are kids today addicted to their phones? And more importantly, how does this addiction affect their presence in the classroom? But let's not stop there. Let's reflect on ourselves as adults. Are we also caught in the grip of phone addiction? Today's topic hits home for me personally, as I've witnessed the staggering number of cell phone issues in my classroom, ranging from distractions to cyberbullying, over the past few years. But I've also come to realize, I too, might be addicted.

Recently, I've made a conscious effort to reduce my social media usage and prioritize meaningful connections with my family. This self-reflection has opened my eyes to the profound impact of phone addiction on our mental health as teachers. In this episode, we'll explore surprising statistics, my own journey of taking a social media hiatus, and the steps I'm taking to address this issue. Together, we'll learn how to set boundaries, break free from the addiction cycle, and ultimately protect ourselves from teacher burnout and increased stress. It's time to reclaim our classrooms from cell phone addiction.

One of the biggest struggles that teachers are having with implementing Artificial Intelligence in their classrooms is the fear that somehow using AI will somehow make their jobs obsolete. The other is that they don't know how it use AI effectively. That's why I brought onto the show, Ren Wang, the co-founder of HiLink, to discuss the potential of AI in education, debunking myths and highlighting how it's set to support, not supplant, the irreplaceable human element of teaching.

In this episode, we discuss his inspiration behind creating HilLink and the critical role of data in personalized learning, envisioning a future where technology seamlessly integrates into educational environments to offer bespoke learning experiences. We talk about his predictions on the future of AI in the classroom and the power of it in helping support educators.  So, if you're curious about how technology and AI like Hilink can transform your teaching experience, streamline your workflow, and allow you to reclaim your passion for education, this episode is for you.

In the midst of uncertainty and challenging times, it's crucial to find a renewed sense of purpose and direction. In this episode, we dive into navigating through difficult seasons, reprioritizing our lives, and finding a sense of intention and purpose.

In this episode, I share a personal story that I've been reflecting on since the end of 2023 and how the difficult circumstances led to a profound shift in perspective that I know at least one other teacher out there may need to hear as well.

EPISODE 21

Have you ever considered what it means to actually be a "good" teacher? Have you felt guilty when you set boundaries or put yourself first? If you are a teacher in America currently, let me guess...you promptly stated a "yes." Self-care and prioritizing yourself, changing this "good" teacher narrative isn't easy...but as today's guest will share with you - it's definitely worth it!

As a veteran educator of 11 years, I know how hard it is to stop letting what you think "good" teachers do stand in your way of sustaining your career doing what you love. We have these limiting beliefs that just seem impossible to get through. Some of us think of self-care as bath bombs or mani/pedis but it's so much deeper than that. Today's guest has been disrupting these ideas with her business and I can't wait for you to meet her.

Caitlin Peay Smith is a former teacher with over ten years of experience in North Carolina. She has a Master’s Degree in Curriculum & Instruction and another in Teaching English as a Second Language. She is the owner of How To Get Away With Teaching, LLC, a self care brand that disrupts society’s expectations of teachers and moms by prioritizing mental health and wellness. How To Get Away With Teaching also provides mental health resources, mood-boosting wellness goodies, speaking engagements, and a subscription box curated as a reminder for teachers to prioritize themselves.

Are you a teacher who is burnout or feeling overwhelmed, disengaged, and defeated? Finding our unique strengths in our classroom, in our lives, and in our job can really improve our overall sense of well-being and finding our passion. Not everyone was meant to be a teacher, but I believe that if you are here or listening to this podcast then there is a reason you wanted to make an impact in a classroom and finding that unique strength that you hold can be the difference between surviving and thriving in your career.

That's why I am excited to have Natalie Blackman as a guest in this episode to chat about how she ignited her passion for teaching with her creativity through student engagement and classroom transformations.

Now here's a little known fact that not enough people are talking about. While there are a ton of well-being practices in our world, there is evidence and research that shows how engaging in everyday creative behaviors for just 15 minutes can shift not only your motivation but your overall wellbeing. Simply making the rephrased statement of "I'm working on finding my passions again" instead of "I'm so burnt out I have no idea what I like or who I am anymore" can make a huge improvement in reigniting that passion. Scientifically speaking, the antidote to burnout isn't just sitting around and doing nothing; it's making space for things that give you joy. Creative flow is restorative. Natalie is the epitome of merging her creativity into her classroom.

Natalie Blackman, who you might know as The Teaching Files on social media is a 6th grade math and student leadership teacher and coach, who is passionate about student engagement. Her love of iced coffee, school supplies, and reality T.V. is evident in her energy, love, and ideas for creating activities, lessons, and resources that reach students and make learning & teaching fun again.

Automating your classroom to reduce teacher burnout has never been easier before. If you’ve tinkered with idea of incorporating AI into your workflow, you're in the right place! I've been diving deep into the world of AI for a year now, and let me tell you – it's a game-changer for us teachers. We're talking a massive 30-40% time saved on grading and admin tasks. That's more time for coffee breaks and actual teaching!

I've been on a quest to find the crème de la crème of AI tools. I'm talking about those all-in-one, Swiss Army knife kind of tools that save you time and keep you from feeling like you're juggling a million things. In this episode, we're going to explore these gems together. They're specially designed for teacher superheroes like you, dealing with the nitty-gritty of curriculum changes, diverse student needs, and, let's be honest, trying to keep your sanity.

By the end of this episode, you'll be all set to integrate three of my favorite tools into your daily teaching & planning routine and hopefully, feel that spark of passion for teaching all over again.

EPISODE 9. Back to school season for teachers can be pretty tough, brutal even.  Especially after a long relaxing summer, which was much needed.  Because we're so conditioned by our routines over a break, it sends our bodies into somewhat of a shock.  It can be difficult to get into the swing of things.  However, there are things we can do to be proactive in our returns! That is why I am bringing you the four must have ways to make back to school stress-free.

Not to mention, I'll be adding an extra episode every week on Fridays to help motivate, validate, and support you during this month.  So go ahead and follow this show so you can be alerted which each episode goes LIVE!

The Power of Systems for Beating Teacher Burnout

Are you a teacher struggling to get out of teacher burnout? Long hours, demanding responsibilities, and the constant juggling act of managing a classroom can take a toll on even the most passionate educators. But what if there was a way to alleviate some of that stress and sustain your career in the long run? In this episode, Samantha Holcomb joins us as we chat all about the transformative power of teacher systems and how they can be your secret weapon in combating burnout while unlocking classroom success.

Supporting Teachers: How Systems Can Help Reduce Burnout and Enhance Success

Most teachers have a routine or two that they run in their classroom, but routines and systms are very different. Systems are what you need. By implementing strategic systems, you can regain control, streamline your workflow, and find more joy in teaching. In this episode, we explore four types of systems specifically designed to support teachers in reducing burnout, enhancing productivity, and fostering a sustainable career.

Sam Holcomb went from the world of engineering to high school science teacher, and it was hard! That first year of teaching she had a 2 year old and 2 month old with 7 middle school math and science preps to balance. Most weeks were completely stressed and sleep deprived until she made the connection that the engineering and lean efficiency systems from her "previous life" would be the tools to simplify the time and energy spent on seemingly endless to-do lists. Now in year 6, and having to learn 16 different courses to teach, shes determined to make sure everyone can implement simple systems to their classroom and home life!

Are you a teacher struggling to find joy in your job? Do you feel overwhelmed by the never-ending to-do list and burned out by the education system? Hey, I'm with you. I know that feeling. And so does the special guest in today's episode.

This overwhelming to do list that so many teachers struggle with - sometimes, it is put on us by the broken education system and other times, we might be putting tasks on it that just don't make a difference. That's why it's important to differentiate between self-inflicted burnout and the systemic issues within education. In this podcast episode, Jamie Sears sheds light on the "Good Teacher Narrative" that's holding many teachers back and provides her personal definition of what makes a "good teacher". She also shares her insights on the "Marshmallow Effect" and how it relates to teachers and job creep. Don't miss Jamie's number one piece of advice for teachers who think they can't fall back in love with teaching again, and learn how to approach your to-do list with intention and purpose.

Jamie Sears is a fun-loving mom, wife, entrepreneur, and forever teacher at heart. She is also the author of How to Love Teaching Again. After several years in the classroom, her passion to make teaching fun and effective for students and teachers alike inspired her to start Not So Wimpy Teacher. Now she has the honor of serving hundreds of thousands of teachers around the world by providing easy-to-use, hands-on resources, and engaging professional development that help students to love learning and teachers to love teaching.

Not only do you have to lesson plan, do random administrative tasks, email parents and students, keep up to date on grading, but you have to manage behavior and actually teach. If you're like most teachers, that means you are constantly piled with more and more to do. It can be really overwhelming.

A lot of days you probably don’t have the energy to get it all done. So you leave it all for the next day, starting your day in a tizzy of stress. This means you start the day feeling behind. But what if you had your own personal assistant to make your decision making processes, emails, and lesson plans streamlined within a matter of seconds?

In this episode, we're going to dive deeper into some of the reservations that teachers have about utilizing Artificial Intelligence like ChatGPT, how to get good responses from your prompting of Chat GPT, and my favorite ways to utilize it to reduce teacher burnout, job creep, and decision fatigue. This tool can revolutionize the way we teach, learn, and get stuff done!

EPISODE 13: I made a Tiktok recently that had over 1200 educators feeling like I was speaking to their souls.  It was all about how our brains can create patterns from situations we’ve been in previously.  The example I gave was the stress response that we have when entering our buildings at the beginning of school after we left in the stress cycle before summer break.  Our brains don’t know the difference.

This is why I think it is so powerful to understand the stress cycle and the five distinct phases of the stress cycle.  So in this episode, I'm teaching you a little bit of neuroscience but then giving you 3 powerful tips for completing the beginning of the school year stress cycle so you are actively preventing and recovering from teacher burnout.

Maybe you've tried everything under the sun to get this thing in check and nothing seems to work? Don't worry - you are NOT ALONE! One thing no one ever talks about is how the chemicals in our brain from stress can actually get us addicted to it.

Have you ever experienced that internal tug, wondering if it's time to move on from the classroom? If you have, it doesn't mean you're a bad teacher or that you are giving up.

We're looking at how to reframe your experiences and skill set in a way that opens new opportunities without losing the heart that makes you a teacher. If you have been feeling that nudge to look into options outside the classroom, this episode is for you!

EPISODE 22

One of the biggest components that is absolutely necessary as an educator is energy. While it sounds "woo woo" to say that "energy is everything." It literally is - down to the atoms in our body that have energy associated with them, So in this episode, I want to talk specifically to those of you are feeling really low vibe or low energy and bring you that pep talk to get you back into a state of flow. In this episode, I am going to talk about what inspired me to create this episode, my spin on it, bring you 3 ways you can begin to harness your energy and bring yourself alignment, and then motivate you to get into alignment so you feel happy, healthy, and whole as an educator AND human.

One of the reasons that students are apathetic and disengaged is because they don’t see the point or value in learning.

We’ve talked in this short mini-series about apathetic students and disengagement and some real strategies and mindset shifts we can make as educators to reduce the burnout from these types of behaviors.

We need a way to reignite our passion but also to intrinsically motivate students to see the value in life-long learning. Last week we talked about adding productive struggle to our classrooms to support students in building the life skills necessary, but this week, I want us to get into the nitty gritty of taking this a step farther and implementing project-based learning strategies that can transform the way students see the value in their education. Where we shift from the traditional 'sit and get' method to a more hands-on, minds-on approach where students aren't just passive recipients but active participants.

That’s why in today’s episode, we chat with Dr. Diondraya Taylor, who is the founder adn CEO of Mindset & Milestones - a social enterprise that helps schools and youth organizations create real-world learning programs using project-based learning. They provide a weekly project newsletter for teachers and program development services for admin who want to take their schools to the next level. Dr. Taylor fell in love with entrepreneurial thinking through her roles with different startups, and this is where she recognized that applying problem-solving to the real world is an amazing tool for educators to encourage innovation and ambition in their students. Dr. Taylor is also a triple Bruin having graduated from UCLA with a B.S. in psychobiology and entrepreneurship, a Master’s in Education, and a Ph.D. in Education and Organizational Change. Between her business and her research, she is committed to the preparation of youth for the future of work and transforming classrooms into spaces for real-world learning.

Stress as a teacher is something you just can't get away from. It's bound to happen but in order to avoid burnout and sustain your career, we have to take steps to mitigate it in realtime.  

My friend, who you might know as Educator Andrea on Tiktok & Instagram, actually gained some social media notoriety for her hilarious classroom stories, but what you might not know is that she has her Ph.D. in Curriculum and Instruction. Her research and dissertation was all about factors that impact teacher attrition most. What might surprise you is that it was not the class size, it was not the grade level, but it was overwhelmingly one specific area, which we will talk all about in this episode.

In this episode, we talk all about her journey from teacher to professor, her research and dissertation about what could help teachers sustain their careers as educators, and we also chat our experiences in the classroom to let you know you're not alone.

If you've ever faced the challenge of staring at blank faces of your uninterested and disengaged students, you know how hard it is to spark their curiosity. Actually getting them to take action is a struggle in and of itself, but what if I told you there's a transformative approach that could flip the switch from apathy to engagement? That’s exactly what we're diving into in today’s episode, where we explore the game-changing strategy of teaching productive struggle.

This isn’t just about getting students to just pay attention; it’s about empowering them to embrace the challenges of learning head-on. But how, you ask? How do we transform struggle into a force for engagement? How do we make our classrooms a place where mistakes are not just tolerated but celebrated as stepping stones to learning? That's exactly what my special guest, Mona Iehl from Mona Math, and I discuss today - what exactly productive struggle is, how it helps to bridge the gap between apathy & action, and practical steps that we can take to weave productive struggle into the fabric of our teaching, regardless of what subject we teach.

Mona is a former math avoider, teacher & instructional coach in Chicago. Her passion for math came when she discovered how to engage every student in a subject she, too, disliked. Through intentionally changing her math class to help students BE mathematicians using a student centered approach math came alive for Mona and her students. Now Mona collaboratively coaches teachers in building a math culture through rigorous student centered math instruction. You can listen to Mona every Monday on her podcast, Honest Math Chat.

Did you know that a study by the National Center for Education Statistics found that teachers who reported having more autonomy in their classrooms tend to experience lower levels of burnout? Isn't it cool how having the freedom to choose your teaching methods and make decisions in your classroom can actually be a super effective way to fight off burnout? 📚✨ It's like your secret weapon for staying energized and excited on your teaching adventure!

But we don't always have that freedom, do we? Many teachers, including myself, have been signed up for professional development that has nothing to do with what I want to learn or what area I want to grow in. The good news is, there are ways to navigate this too. We can seek out additional resources and opportunities for professional development that better fit our needs. Like this podcast or even peer learning through a plaform made for teachers by teachers.

Odds are you are either a high-achiever, highly sensitive, perfectionistic, people pleasing teacher, or maybe a mix of all of them. Honestly, I see a little bit of each in myself, and let's be real – it can come at a cost. Whether it's our mental health, physical well-being, or even the relationships both in and out of the classroom, something's gotta give. I've been down that road, and it wasn't until I faced burnout head-on that I realized the game-changing potential of setting boundaries.

That's why in this episode, we're jumping headfirst into a topic that's both relevant and transformative. We're going to tackle the four types of teachers who seriously need to kickstart their boundary-setting journey – like, yesterday. I get it, we're all wearing multiple hats as educators, and sometimes it feels like saying "no" is just not an option. But here's the kicker: neglecting our boundaries comes with consequences, and those consequences can lead straight to burnout territory. So, join me as we unravel the why behind boundary-setting, how it's a secret weapon against burnout, and hey, I've even got a couple of tricks up my sleeve – some templated responses and scripts that'll have you setting boundaries with confidence.

Have you ever felt like your job as a teacher isn't just a part of your life, but somehow, it's started to be your life? You're not alone. Many of us teachers have find ourselves caught in a cycle where the lines between professional and personal blur—a phenomenon psychologists call "enmeshment." It's like our work has slowly woven itself into every fiber of our being, dictating not just how we spend our hours but also shaping our identity and worth.

While being passionate and dedicated is admirable, this enmeshment can steer us toward a dangerous cliff of exhaustion and burnout. It's a reality many of us face, yet struggle to navigate. The question then becomes, how do we untangle ourselves from this intricate web and reclaim our autonomy, ensuring our jobs enrich, not consume, our lives?

In this episode, we talk about how identity loss is a byproduct of burnout, how preserving our personal life is protective, and the three things we can do today to detach our worth and find balance.

If you put one hundred teachers in a room together and asked them what would make teaching a sustainable career, they would all give you different answers. However, those answers would all fit within three different areas: Support, Action, and Mindset, which are the Spheres to Sustainable Teaching. If you ask 100 teachers if teaching has ever made them sacrifice their personal life, 95% of them would say that it has. That's why we've got to start working smarter, not harder if we want to sustain this career long-term.

A common misconception that many educators fall prey to is that in order to be an effective educator you have to work longer hours, take work home, and do EVERYTHING you can. It's easy to believe that the more time you put into your work, the better your outcomes will be. However, the truth is that working longer hours often leads to burnout and ultimately hinders your effectiveness as a teacher. In this episode, we will bust this myth and give you the keys to shifting your mindset in the second episode of The Sustainability Series.

Are you one of the millions of teachers who has felt burned out and fried? What if you could turn that sizzle into a spark that transforms your classroom and your life?

One of the hardest things to overcome is our challenges, and some of us will spend the rest of our careers running from the pain.  What if we could use our pain as fuel for our fire?

In the grand theater of teaching, every curtain fall is just a prelude to a grander act. This episode is here to remind you that every lesson, every student, every challenge is a chance to choreograph a masterpiece.

In this episode, we explore the transformative potential of burnout. We discuss reframing negative experiences as opportunities for growth and resilience, and share strategies for embracing discomfort and stress as catalysts for positive change. Through personal stories and collective experiences, we aim to inspire unity and encourage teachers to make meaningful shifts in their lives. Ultimately, this episode serves as a reminder that you are a resilient teacher, and we are all in this together.

EPISODE 6  Are you still struggling to get a hang of this burnout recovery thing?  Some people can implement some strategies and feel a little better, but often times one very important thing is missing.

Inner work.  Before you can bring your best self into your classroom, you need to ensure that you are regularly monitoring yourself for signs of destructive behavior that end up cycling in burnout.  This is the last episode in the Summer Self-Care for Burnout Recovery Series and the perfect end to this specific series because without this, none of the rest will really matter. 

When it comes to recovering from burnout, there are lots of different methods for inner work and there are many reasons why it is important.  We are covering all of that and more in today's episode and I brought on Ce'arra Richards to join in on the conversation.

Ce’arra Richards is a First Grade Teacher who believes that teachers can Trojan Horse the archaic and failing education system from the inside out by taking rebellious and radical personal responsibility; using inner work to heal.

Are you looking for ways to reduce decision fatigue that is impacting you in your classroom or at home? Are you not even sure that's what you are experiencing? In this episode, we are diving deeper into effects of decision fatigue and how it can impact your energy and focus. A lot of teachers don't even realize that some of their normal every day habits in and out of the classroom are leading to additional stress responses that can lead to increased decision fatigue.

In this episode, I am sharing my recent experience realizing something that's been causing me decision fatigue, talk about how this transition period from winter break can really increase the possibility of decision fatigue, give you a couple of ways to really reduce this, and then sprinkle in a little pep talk at the end to really center you towards avoiding and preventing that choice paralysis.

Ready to hear some game-changing ways to reduce decision fatigue so you can boost your energy and focus on the things you love?

Is it that time of the year to sign your teaching contract and you just don't know what to do? Are you confused - thinking how much you loved teaching but now it just doesn't seem feasible? Maybe you wonder if you've reached the point of no return. I get it. And while I love supporting teachers in reigniting their passion for teaching, I love supporting teachers in recovery from burnout even more. That means, I'm never going to tell you to stay in a profession if you are ready to hang up the towel. I want to help you recover from burnout - however that looks for you. And I realize that some teachers may not want to stay in it longterm and that's perfectly fine! Actually, I recommend exploring your options so that you can bring passion and joy back into your life.

That's why I am interviewing my good friend Amber Harper, who you might know as The Burned In Teacher in today's episode because she's done just that. She left teaching. Not once but TWICE. In this episode, we are going to ask her the biggest questions around what made her leave, what on earth made her go back, and how she went from burned out to burned in.

Amber Harper is a long-time educator, author, speaker, and podcaster. She’s the founder of  www.burnedinteacher.com and author of Hacking Teacher Burnout which gives struggling teachers a path to follow as they navigate their way out of burnout. Amber is a Teacher Burnout Coach working with educators to help them grow through their burnout and take their next, best steps toward what they want from their career in education and in life.

Have you ever spent your Sunday freaking out about your week ahead? Scrambling to finish last minute lesson plans or meal plan for the week ahead? Ruminating about all the what if's?

Did you know that literally 80% of professionals experience the Sunday Scaries, according to a LinkedIn survey. That number is astronomical but does not even account for the educational professionals who experience this, which is probably closer to like 95%.

Don't worry, I'm not here to tell you that the Sunday Scaries aren't real or that you just have to "stop worrying" (I always hate it when people say that like it's an intellectual decision). I'm here to tell you that I have been there, I've done that, and I'm sharing in this episode a story that I've never shared anywhere else online before. I am, however, here to share with you it's possible to transform your fears and reclaim your weekends. So are you ready to slay those Sunday Scaries?

These pep talk style episodes are my attempt to create a more authentic way for you to connect with me, for you to feel like you have support on your hardest days (even if and ESPECIALLY if you don't have that in your community or schools).  I also created this style in an effort to show you that you are not alone. We are in this together and YOU ARE a RESILIENT TEACHER!

Ever wonder how the chronic stress from teaching is impacting your summer lifestyle?

While summer break is the ultimate goal of resting and recharging; stress knows no rest. Its impact on our bodies lingers, even in the moments of supposed tranquility, silently eroding our well-being. The weird period of transition from heavy stress-induced overwork in teaching to summer break can be a shock to your nervous system and you need evidence-based ways to get yourself regulated this summer.

In this episode, we are going to chat about why stress causes teachers to experience sickness, anxiety, overcommitment, and/or total exhaustion in the summer and the three simple ways you can stress less so you can get out of living the same burned out year time and time again. So what do you say? You ready to live your best hot teacher summer life?

Teacher planners are a hot commodity. You see your teacher friends come to meetings with their pretty highlighted, color coded, and washi taped pages because planners help you stay on track, right? Statistically speaking, no. A new teacher planner is not going to solve all of your teacher burnout problems. 

Instead, it is possible for your planner to be CAUSING you more issues? Don't get me wrong, I love a good planner. My personal favorite way to plan is through digital planning, which I have turned into a complete work flow for all things teaching related. In this episode, I dive into why your teacher planner is not going to get you out of burnout and what we can do to really hack our system and use our planner as a tool to beat burnout.

Teachers are busy. One day we’re in a college thinking the rest of our life is planned out; the next we’re juggling fifteen thousand tasks as a teacher. In order for us to accomplish everything we need to do, we’re going to need some energy.

The best way to gain energy is through doing more of what you love. But here’s the conundrum - how do you get more done with less available hours in your day?

That's where a simple yet powerful teacher system comes into play. You need a way to identify those repetitive tasks that eat away at your precious hours and find a solution – whether it's automation, delegation, or elimination.

Unleashing Classroom Automation with Templates

One of the most underrated ways to automate your classroom is through templates. And no, we're not talking about those generic templates that leave you feeling uninspired. We're talking about game-changing templates that can revolutionize your classroom, streamline your workload, and give you the energy and time you need to do what you love.

In this episode, we’re diving into the third installment of The Simplify & Systemize Series to unlock some unexpected templates to simplify your teaching life. Whether you're looking to create templates for lesson plans, enhance communication with parents, streamline classroom announcements, or even discover templates for aspects of your teaching routine you might not have considered before – we've got you covered!

But this episode is not just about crafting the usual Excel spreadsheet lesson plan templates. No, we're delving deeper, exploring how templates can transform those relentless, seemingly urgent tasks into powerful, repeatable systems. These templates are your key to regaining control over your teaching workflow in unexpected and innovative ways.

By the time we wrap up, you won't just appreciate the power of templates; you'll have a toolbox full of practical tools and strategies to implement them effectively.

How many times have you been told to “find your why” or “remember your why” when you are feeling burnt out and exhausted? To be honest, it’s simply not helpful. Knowing your why originally was meant to inspire and encourage teachers but now, it’s become a source of anxiety and guilt for many. But how can we move away from this toxic idea of “remembering our why”?

Teachers are so often told to focus entirely on the students, on the school, on the community, on the difference they’re making, etc. The thing is, when you are focusing solely on everyone else and taking on more and more responsibilities, there is no room for taking care of us as individuals. In this episode, I am sharing how we can move away from these toxic ideas and redefine our purpose, reclaim our joy in teaching, and how you can find a “why” that fuels you and empowers you instead of draining you

As teachers we spend a lot of time doing a lot of different tasks but grading and feedback are the number one areas especially for Language Arts teachers that can take up an enormous amount of time. You’ve probably been like me and spent hours at your kitchen table missing out on time with family and just life outside of work.

In this episode, we’re chatting with special guest, Gil Flores about how AI is shifting the landscape of education, what this means for our roles as educators, and critically, how tools like Cograder and other AI Grading & Feedback tools can help us reclaim our personal time while deepening the impact we have on our students’. Gil will also address some common concerns and misconceptions about integrating AI into traditional teaching methods.

So, if you’re curious about reducing the grind of grading and eager to see how AI can support more personalized education, this conversation is for you.

Are you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and just overall struggling with burnout, this episode is for you. The truth is burnout isn’t just about stress or workload, but it's actually rooted in disconnection. If you've been trying all the right things like holding boundaries and prioritizing self-care, but you’re still feeling like something's missing, this might just be it.

As teachers, we know firsthand the importance of creating strong, meaningful relationships in the workplace but building those connections isn’t always easy.  In this episode, I’m diving into how challenging it can be to form adult friendships. I’m breaking down how proximity, timing, and energy are all key to building true friendships, as well as sharing practical steps to expand your circle and evaluate your school culture. Don’t miss the practical tips for finding your community, even in difficult environments, to help you combat burnout.

One of the reasons we experience burnout is because we're just bored. I know I've been that teacher, where things just aren't as exciting as they used to be.

In this episode, we explore the concept of micro learning and its powerful role in reigniting the spark and passion in teaching.

EPISODE 28.

Are you believing the lies everyone is trying to feed you about work-life balance? I know that I've subscribed to these lies in the past. We are so used to living in this fast-paced world that we can find it difficult to balance those scales and actually feel joyful about our life. What if I told you there was a method we could use to feel more fulfilled? If you have been on the treadmill of work-life balance, never making progress...you're going to want to listen to this episode.

In this episode, I am going to correct a phrase that I used in the past that isn't exactly accurate, expose the lies of work-life balance, bring you that truth, and give you that pep talk you may need to start changing the narrative of work-life balance.

Have you hit that point of burnout where you're wondering if it's time to head to the therapist office? Maybe the idea of therapy is scary to you and you just don't know what to expect? I know that when I first set foot in a therapist's office, I was terrified and I knew I just wanted to get help but wasn't sure what exactly to expect. You've probably been there before too and I want you to know that getting help from a licensed professional is not something to be ashamed of. It's understandable to feel nervous or apprehensive about seeking help from a therapist, but it's important to recognize that therapy can be an incredibly powerful tool in managing burnout and prioritizing your mental health.

In this episode, we dive into Clare's story of teacher burnout across seas, how she went from teacher to therapist and discuss topics such as the root causes of teacher burnout, the transformative power of hypnotherapy, and practical tips for finding the right therapist or practitioner for you. We also explore the symptoms of burnout that therapy can help address and provide a quick exercise to calm your nervous system right now.

Clare was an Early Years teacher for 20 years. She initially taught in the UK, then in the Middle East. She suffered with chronic anxiety for years, until a family crisis pushed her over the edge and she suffered from teacher burnout. Quickly followed by a health scare. After resigning in 2020, with no clear idea of what she was going to do, apart from to try to regain her health, she realized her high stress levels had contributed to her health crisis and this led her to train to be a Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist and Mindfulness Coach. She actually used all the skills she learned on herself first! She is now happy and healthy, and supports and teaches others how to transform their mental and physical health and well-being through her signature 1:1 program, “The Shift”.

Reclaiming Joy Amongst Burnout: Empowering Teachers to Rediscover Happiness in the Classroom

When you feel overwhelmed, stressed to the max, and just to the point of no return in burnout, joy is probably the furthest thing from your mind. But what if I told you reclaiming joy is the key to breaking free from this burnout trap.

Now, I get it. You might be thinking, "Here comes another dose of toxic positivity, brushing off my struggles." But hold on a second. Reclaiming joy is not about slapping on a fake smile or pretending that everything is rainbows and unicorns. It's about recognizing the immense challenges you face as a teacher and still finding moments of genuine happiness because YOU DESERVE IT.

That's why in this episode we chat with Maddy Fry, as she shares her insights into finding joy even during those really crappy seasons, finding motivation when life gives you lemons, the power of summer for achieving your goals, and why community is the key for fostering joy.

Being a burned out teacher is hard but being a burned out teacher with a disability presents unique challenges to face every day. We all know that teachers give so much of themselves to their teaching so it’s especially important for teachers with disabilities to set and hold boundaries in order to take care of themselves.

In this episode, we get to chat with Hayley Spira-Bauer about her experiences teaching with disabilities and how she navigated the two in tandem. She is sharing how she experienced burnout while teaching and the need for self-advocacy among teachers who often feel pressured to meet their students' needs while neglecting their own. We’re also looking at how teacher vacancies impact overall teacher well-being and how she is still making an impact on students and teachers through her current role.

Hayley Spira-Bauer is the Chief Operating Officer of Fullmind as well as a New York State certified teacher. She spent the tenure of her teaching career in brick and mortar schools in New York City, working in a public school in the South Bronx and and then a charter school in Harlem for a decade.

Work-life balance, what does it really mean for teachers? Truly disconnecting from work once the school day is done is incredibly challenging for many teachers. We have so much on our to do lists at school and at home. It often feels like we’re in a constant state of overwhelm and like we are just trying to keep our heads above water.

I’ve been that overwhelmed teacher without a good work-life balance so in today’s episode, I am giving you real-life, actionable strategies for helping you ditch the overwhelm and leave work at work. I’m sharing why you shouldn’t try to check off everything on your to do list, how to prioritize your tasks, why you shouldn’t always be available, and the importance of knowing that good enough is enough.

EPISODE 5  Have you ever wondered how you to create a burnout recovery plan?  How long will it take?  How will you find the time? In Episode 3, I gave you some really great information about the stress cycle and how it relates to our summer break as educators. Then we talked about some practical and evidence-based ways to complete the stress cycle in Episode 4.  Now we are combining all of the information we've learned about the stress cycle and developing a plan in an hour (or less) to recover this summer and head into the new school year - reignited and rejuvenated.

This is the third episode in the Summer Self-Care to Burnout Recovery series, so if you haven't listened to Episode 3 and Episode 4 yet, you'll want to go back and listen to those first because a lot of the things we talk about in this episode build upon what we learned in those episodes.

As teachers, our To-Do list can get to be a mile long and be a source of serious stress. One of the reasons that teachers are so mentally drained and burned out is because of the overwhelming amount of work we have to do. And it's because you have an incredible mental load that you are carrying—the load that maybe not everyone sees, the anticipation of other people's needs as well as classroom needs and your own needs.

In this episode, we focus on transitioning from the never-ending to-do list to repeatable and automated systems to reclaim your time, energy, and capacity. We'll share three essential steps that will allow you to work within your contract hours and live your best life inside and outside of the classroom without sacrificing effectiveness or efficiency.

From prioritizing tasks to delegating and automating, this episode provides actionable steps to reduce workload and stress levels. So, if you're ready to take control of your teaching experience and find a better work-life balance, this episode is for YOU!

If you are a teacher who is not taking action due to fear and living in chaos, let me tell you - you are not alone. In this episode, I share a personal story about how my daughters had to switch schools just two weeks before the start of the school year and how this unexpected change brought up a lot of fear and anxiety—both for them and for me.

We dive into how fear of the unknown can paralyze us as educcators leading to procrastination, overactivity, and eventually burnout. We explore the different fears teachers face daily—from fear of failure to fear of losing their jobs—and how these fears create chaos in our lives. I also give my super simple 2-step plan to help you move from chaos to calm. It's literally so simple that I wish it were more difficult..

EPISODE 8  Are you struggling with getting a grip on your duties as a professional and still living a life outside of work?  Work-life balance for educators is one of the most difficult tasks to accomplish because we feel like we have to give more, be more, and do it all - "for the kids."  The fact is that the majority of educators lack work-life balance which impacts their stress levels, their families, and eventually leads to burnout.  Lacking this important balance is not going to support our well-being.  Being in burnout is not going to help the kids.

That's why in this episode, I am giving you three practical tips so you can gain better work-life balance and beat burnout this school year.

EPISODE 15. In this episode, I am talking about one of my favorite ways that teachers can sustain their energy, set limits in their career, and feel more empowered & beat burnout - BOUNDARIES!  I brought my friend, Spencer Cotter, on the show to talk about her journey with teacher burnout, how she transformed her burnout, and her must have boundaries for teachers, weekends, and social media.

Spencer Cotter is a former teacher who went from burnout to living on her own terms and currently mentors teachers helping them do the same. She helps teachers empower themselves and believes that with high level personal development skills such as building boundaries, mastering your mindset and elevating your energy, you can live the life you want and deserve despite the challenges you face.

EPISODE 7  We know from research that teacher burnout can very well set the stage and cause a ripple effect which can impact student behavior, academics, etc.  However, if you are an educator, you know that difficult student behavior can also lead to teacher burnout.  So which came first?  The chicken (burnout) or the egg (behavior)?  And how can we prevent behavior issues from impacting our burnout?  Even as a veteran teacher, you may be nervous about the coming school year because of the uncharacteristic influx of disruptive and out of hand behaviors occurring in your classroom.

Today, we are welcoming a duo that are behavior experts bringing some tips that you can use as you return back to school this fall to help reduce burnout from student behavior.  They share with us how we can regulate our nervous system and emotions so behaviors are not as detrimental, strategies to keep behaviors at bay, and so much more.  In this episode, I interview Gina Peluso and Rachel Nye from Behavior By Design.

Gina is a kindergarten teacher and classroom/behavior management coach for teachers. With over a decade of experience in the classroom, she knows first-hand what it's like to struggle to teach because you're constantly managing behaviors. Rachel is a special education teacher and certified trauma professional passionate about helping teachers shape student behavior through a trauma informed lens.  Gina and Rachel met on instagram and instantly realized their philosophies about behavior management were aligned. They realized they could have a bigger impact on teachers by working together. Their mission is to empower teachers to change student behavior in positive ways by equipping them with easy-to-implement behavior supports and have fun while they're at it!

You know I think AI is amazing and can helps save us time with lesson planning and personalizing learning. But let’s keep it real, AI is not a magic solution to all our teacher burnout problems, despite what some companies try to tell you.  That's why I want to dive into the realities of AI's role in education as well as its capabilities, limitations, and its impact on teacher burnout.

There are so many AI tools out there that teachers can utilize to reduce the amount of time and mental energy needed to complete some tasks but there are no AI tools that can solve the systemic problems in education or provide human connection. In this episode, we are looking at why AI alone cannot solve burnout, what it can help us with, and what we need to focus on instead to truly beat burnout in education.

If you find yourself caught between the stress of work demands and the pressures of home life, this episode is just for you. Teachers often find it especially challenging to find a balance between doing everything they feel they need to for work and maintaining their personal life and well-being. I am so excited to have Steven Langer join me today to talk all about maintaining wellness in both the workplace and in your personal life.

Steven Langer is a former teacher and principal who transitioned to focus on organizational wellness with his company, Well by Design. Steven is sharing valuable insights on fostering positive workplace cultures and redefining the concept of work-life balance into what he describes as "work-life coherence." We are also diving into the importance of self-awareness and communication, the difference between rest and sleep, and how dopamine hacking can help your brain recognize your accomplishments.

If you’ve looked for self-improvement guidance, you’ve likely come across some self-help guru on social media telling you how important it is to have a morning routine. Except the morning routines they are promoting are not realistic for many teachers, especially if they are parents or are already feeling burnout. The good news is that just because you may not be able to have this intricate morning routine doesn’t mean you can’t still start your day in a way that helps reduce your stress and prepare you for the day.

Years ago when I realized I was officially burned out, I tried to implement a multi step morning routine like I had read about in a blog and I quickly realized that there was no way it was feasible for me. And I know that I am not alone in that! So if you’re looking for ways to start your day off right without adding the additional stress of a morning routine, I’ve got you covered! In this episode, I am sharing what I have learned since then when it comes to morning routines including why you should focus on intentions over routines, the importance of anchor habits, and finding joy in your day.

EPISODE 23

In this episode of The Resilient Teacher Podcast, we are talking more about energy levels. Energy levels are sometimes impacted by our mindset, expectations, but it can also be heavily influenced by our overall health and wellness. Because teachers have limited energy due to decision fatigue and stress, it can be difficult to make sustainable changes to things like nutrition which can be used as a TOOL to get our minds and bodies working optimally so that our systems can effectively manage and balance our blood sugar levels, hormones, and all those internal pieces that help our bodies be resilient to stress. Nutrition is a big piece of the puzzle but this episode is NOT about nutrition for weight loss. We are going to be chatting with Bre Baildon, who is my favorite teacher dietician, about how nutrition impacts our energy and stress in and out of the classroom, how to create lasting nutritional change when you don't have motivation, and some ideas for low-prep lunches so you maintain your energy. 

Bre is a registered dietitian who helps teachers stop stressing about food or their health so that they can gain more time and energy to do the things they truly want to do. She makes healthy eating practical, delicious, and sustainable for educators to feel better and be present in and out of the classroom. As the wife of an international middle school teacher, Bre has worked with educators and schools all around the world to prioritize all aspects of teacher health and wellbeing.

She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Nutrition and Dietetics from Concordia College and a Master’s degree in Health & Wellness Coaching from Creighton University.

If you are in the throws of Back to School, let me tell you - it's never too late to automate! Last year, I hosted a 3 day free event called the Back to School Automation Bootcamp for Teachers and I got so many requests for another bootcamp. Instead, I thought what better way to help my teacher friends reduce stress and overwhelm this year than to grab it from the archives and let you get in on the fun with the replays!

Have you ever made a mistake in teaching and all of a sudden you're saying "I'm just not good at this" or judging yourself pretty harshly? I know I have and if you are anything like me, you may not have even realized that these limiting beliefs and negative self-talk can really start to accumulate over time leading to the dreaded teacher burnout.

In this episode, we chat with Lisa Baylis about the powerful antidote to the poision that is Teacher Burnout. She shares with us how the practice of self-compassion can benefit ourselves and our students, the difference between mindfulness and self-compassion, the brain science behind it, and free ways that we can begin practicing self-compassion today.

Lisa Baylis has been sharing well-being strategies for the last 20 years. A natural-born connector with an innate ability to make people feel valued and heard, she is a teacher, a counsellor, a facilitator, and a mother. Lisa is a published author of "Self-Compassion for Educators" as well as, the creator of the AWE Method — Awakening the Wellbeing for Educators — which merges self-care, mindfulness, and self-compassion.

Ever caught yourself in that late-night teacher's trance, just you and the ceiling after a long day, wondering why your tank feels empty? 🤔 If you're nodding along, know that you're in good company. Teacher burnout has this sneaky way of creeping up on us, even when we're pouring our hearts into what we love. It's like one minute you're on fire, full of passion, and the next, you're questioning if all the effort is worth it. But here's a little secret: burnout doesn't discriminate. It can hit us even when we're in the midst of our teaching passion.

So, what's up with that? 🧠 In today's episode, we're diving deep into our brains during burnout. Why do our brains trick us into feeling all doom and gloom? How do our internal chemical cocktails—dopamine and epinephrine—play into our feelings of fulfillment and motivation (or the lack thereof)? And the real kicker: how can we, as dedicated educators, hack our brain's reward system to reignite that teaching spark?

This isn't your average pep talk. It's a science-backed, actionable guide to flipping the script on burnout. From setting micro-goals that make us feel like champions 🏆 to finding joy in the little wins that keep our teaching flame alive, we're here to unpack how to make teaching sustainable and joyful again.

Ready to hack your way to a happier teaching life? Then this episode is for you!

One of the most not-talked-about factors of teacher burnout is our finances. Our financial health impacts our overall well-being, alongside physical, emotional, and social aspects. As educators, financial stress can weigh heavily on us, exacerbating burnout. A study by Stanford University found that teachers experience higher levels of economic and financial anxiety compared to other professions. Many teachers struggle to make ends meet, leading to chronic worry and even the need for second jobs.

But there is a way forward. By prioritizing financial literacy and making smart decisions, we can reduce stress levels and gain a sense of empowerment. In this episode, we interview Emily Maretsky, a financial coach specializing in helping educators. Emily shares practical strategies, retirement options, and tips for achieving financial health. Join us as we debunk financial myths, break free from scarcity mindset, and explore how financial self-care is essential for teacher well-being.

AI seems to be everywhere now, and that includes in your classroom. Although some teachers may be hesitant to utilize AI in their classrooms, it truly is a powerful tool for creating an interactive class and can even help to build relationships within the classroom. 

Today, Joe and Kristin Merrill are joining me to talk about integrating AI into the classroom to help free up teachers’ time while giving students the opportunity to interact with the content in new ways. We are taking a look at what an interactive classroom is, concerns surrounding AI in the classroom, and how AI can help teachers. They also share why they think teachers should be excited about AI in education and how they’ve experienced burnout throughout their careers.

Often we think of teacher learning goals as these things that include educational jargon like "rigor" or "learning gap." But if we aren't creating our own professional learning goals, then it's almost pointless.

In this episode, we dive into how Melissa, a teacher just like you (not an influencer or social media teacher) used this podcast to set a professional learning goal to beat the teacher burnout cycle once and for all. As you listen to her story, I'm sure you'll feel a little sense of "Oh, I've been there too" and grab a few ideas to add to your plan to beat burnout this school year. It's a constant process and the process of setting these goals is what leads to reviving that passion for teaching again.

Melissa is a veteran teacher with 20 years experience in the classroom. Out of college, she was hired to teach 4 year old kindergarten in a suburb of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She has been blessed to be able to stay in the same school, grade level and classroom for her entire career. She considers herself to be an ordinary classroom teacher as she does not have any teacher social media presence. Melissa tries to make a difference every day by bringing joy, playfulness and connection to our youngest learners.

Are one of those teachers who saves up all of their sick days, personal days, rarely takes a day off? Maybe you think to yourself - "I can't take a day off work because my class would fall apart." Perhaps you feel like it's not worth it to take your day because you have to prepare for a sub and then you'll fall behind on all the work you do. That it's more work to be out than it is to actually just show up. Or maybe you just feel guilty or pressure to not let your kids down or your co-workers because there is a sub shortage. I get it. I really do, but I want you to know how important it is for you to start taking your personal and mental health days. The truth is that using your benefits like taking time off can help reduce stress, prevent burnout, and improve overall physical and mental health when you are prepared and empowered to do so.

That's why on today's episode, I brought on Kelsey Sorenson from Wife Teacher Mommy to come chat all about teacher sick days. Seriously, we're diving into some of those mindsets you have that may be keeping you from using your benefits, she's doing a little life coaching to help turn those mindsets around and empower you to prioritize using your benefits, and then she's wrapping it up with spilling the tea on how you can prepare yourself for a sub (like today without any stress or hassle).

Kelsey Sorenson is a former third grade teacher and substitute teacher. She is now a homeschool mom to 3 kids and owner of Wife Teacher Mommy, where she and her team serve Pre-K through 6th grade teachers. She is also currently working on her Life Coach Certfication through The Life Coach School to offer teachers the support they need now more than ever. Wife Teacher Mommy has been featured on We are Teachers, Teachers pay Teachers, Jane, Etsy, Food Network, CBC, Fox, and NBC. Kelsey and her team have helped hundreds of thousands of educators cut down planning time and balance the many roles in their lives with her time-saving resources, blogs, teacher life coaching program, Educate & Rejuvenate events, and Wife Teacher Mommy: The Podcast. Kelsey is addicted to Coke Zero and loves reading and listening to audiobooks.

It's a brand new year coming up - 2024 - time flies when you're having fun...right? Look, It's time to break the cycle of burnout and start the new year off on the right foot. Last year, we released an episode and I think everything is still super relevant for today.

So, throughout this episode if I mention 2023, just know it goes the same for 2024. I've been in burnout recovery for almost 5 years and I want to remind you that recovery is not linear. It has dips where we slip back and we do things that we aren't so proud of, but that's why in this episode I am bringing you four teacher burnout habits not to bring into 2024...and number four - it's a real doozy!

If you've been dealing with the idea that students now-a-days are completely apathetic, you are certainly not alone. It seems like in recent years, students' disengagement has increased. However, it's important to realize that it's not just about them, but it's about us as well.

In this episode, we are diving into one of the questions from The Resilient Teacher Community members, who asked, "How do you not burnout when students appear to be apathetic about learning & don’t put effort into their work?" We'll dive into this idea of student engagement - or lack thereof, with special guest, Danielle Nuhfer. Danielle is a former public school teacher turned coach and the author of The Path of the Mindful Teacher and founder of Teaching Well. She's spent the last 20+ years navigating the ebbs and flows of the current school system, while helping clients prioritize their own well-being so that they can be their best selves inside and outside their classrooms and schools.

We are going to talk about the common misconceptions around student disengagement, and she will share her unique TLC approach – a strategy that empowers us to understand and reshape our interactions with students.

Classroom management challenges can leave teachers feeling overwhelmed and frustrated—but what if the key to better behavior isn’t stricter rules, but sensory regulation? In this episode, Dr. Bethany Bilodeau, an expert in human behavior with a Doctorate of Arts in Leadership, shares groundbreaking strategies that help both students and teachers feel safe, stay engaged, and reduce stress in the classroom.

She holds numerous certifications in behavioral therapies and has been recognized with prestigious awards, including the 2024 Business of the Year in Education and Business Excellence for Social Equity.

In this episode, she explains why traditional classroom management approaches often fall short and how small, simple shifts—like adjusting lighting, incorporating movement, and recognizing positive behaviors—can dramatically improve student engagement and behavior. She also shares insights from her upcoming book, Ease the Pain in the Classroom: A Guide to Safety and Regulation, set to launch in 2025, which provides practical, ready-to-use techniques for educators.

If you’ve ever felt burnt out by behavioral challenges, this episode is packed with doable strategies that won’t add to your already full plate.

If you spend hours writing your to-do list and constantly having more and more added to your plate as a teacher...then you more than likely could use some help from one of my favorite tools for reducing stress - (drum roll please) - AUTOMATION. I get a lot of questions from teachers about how to handle job creep, never having enough time, and always feeling a little behind...look, I don't know why no one is talking about it but automation pretty much changed my life. I use automated systems in my teaching career, personal life, and even at home (which sounds robotic but it's not!)

I will tell anyone who listens to me that automation saved my sanity and gave me back the time I needed to spend on my students and living my life. Here's the thing, there are tons of automation tools out there but if you just plug and play random things without intention or purpose, it's just going to be another thing on your list of to-do's. That's why in this episode, we are going to talk about how being spread too thin can impact students and teachers alike, automation as a tool to fix this, and then the five simple ways you can incorporate automation in your classroom today.

Have you ever felt like you just weren't "enough" as a teacher? You may be experiencing imposter syndrome, which is defined as a set of inadequacies that linger in the face of achievement. It is difficult for "imposters" to feel successful or have outside validation of their competence because they are constantly doubt themselves and feel like "a fraud." Yes, unfortunately, imposter syndrome is a real thing, but there are things we can do to stomp it to the curb. Truthfully, we all - myself included - struggle with this at some point in our journey. Therefore, even though your own imposter syndromes may manifest in a variety of ways, in order to find a way to your boundless success, we must tackle it head-on. In today's episode, we're doing just that.

Here’s a list of questions that may indicate that you’re dealing with imposter syndrome:

• Are you certified in middle school but want to step into a different grade level?
• Are you a first year teacher and want to try something new or innovative but scared of what veterans will think?
• Are you wanting to step into a leadership role?
• Are you ready to retire but still feel like you could bring something vital to the education table?
• Do you feel unfulfilled in your current role but afraid to step into a new role for fear you may fail? Or not be "good enough?"

If you answered yes to any of the above or if you relate to any of the above, you might be dealing with imposter syndrome. In this episode, I’m going to lay out the action steps you need to kick imposter syndrome to the curb. Before I do, I'm going to share with you my recent imposter infiltration and remind you that you are not alone.

We need to have a little chat about teacher perfectionism. Though many teachers will unapologetically announce to you that they are a "perfectionist," this is a slippery slope that can lead you on the fast track to burnout. This personality trait is not necessarily something you should be proud of but rather something that can lead you to resenting your career and heading for LinkedIn.

Here's the thing. It does not have to be that way. Striving and perfectionism are not the same thing and in this episode, I am going to share with you a little bit about the post that inspired this episode, give you some tips and strategies to avoiding perfectionism so you can save your career, and then bring that motivation you need to start turning this idea around!
