Hall Pass - 013 - Why You Don’t Owe Your Lunch Break to Anyone

Your lunch break is not a bonus block for meetings, makeup tests, or hallway duty—it’s your time. In the second episode of our 10-part series on setting boundaries, we’re diving into why you don’t owe your lunch break to anyone. I’ll share how I’ve used mine to recharge—sometimes by reading, sometimes by connecting with students I’ve built relationships with—and why protecting that time is essential for your sanity and your effectiveness. This episode is all about reclaiming what’s yours, without guilt.
