Are you on the endless quest to finding "teacher balance"? Out of all the things you have read and tried in the past, has any of it worked in the long run or are you still looking for the "secret sauce"? Today's episode hits you with a big reality check - there is no secret sauce and there's nothing wrong with you either!
It's that you're being fed a lot of myths by coaching professionals or former teachers who are not necessarily able to practice what they preach in the classroom to see whether these tactics actually work for unique demands of a teacher's life.
In this episode, I drop some hard truth bombs and I'll offer you some of my practical alternative strategies and mindset shifts that I know actually work, because I am a teacher like you! If you're struggling with work life balance and nothing else has worked so far, this episode is for you.
