✨ Episode Summary:

As teachers, we’re constantly pouring out—time, energy, emotions—and rarely pausing to assess what still matters to us as individuals. 

In this episode, Myndel reflects on a powerful insight from Tim Ferriss’ The 4-Hour Workweek and uses it as a lens to examine how educators can do their own summer soul inventory.

If you’ve ever felt weighed down by stuff—literal or emotional—or wondered if your priorities still align with the life you actually want, this one’s for you.

🔑 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

  • What Tim Ferriss' four outfits can teach us about emotional baggage
  • How summer is the perfect window for quiet reflection
  • 3 key inventory prompts to clarify what’s truly important
  • Why teachers must re-evaluate not just their classrooms, but their inner lives
  • How to give yourself permission to release outdated beliefs, roles, and routines

🛠️ Your Summer Inventory Prompts:

  1. What am I still doing that I don’t care about anymore?
  2. What have I been wanting to do but haven’t given myself permission?
  3. Who or what makes me feel most like myself?

📌 Resources Mentioned:

  • The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss
