Ever feel like you're running on caffeine and fumes just to make it through the school day? You're not alone! In this episode, I sit down with nutrition educator and coach Kate Lyman to talk about how small, strategic nutrition shifts can boost energy, improve focus, and help prevent teacher burnout.

We break down the science behind brain fuel and simple, no-stress ways to eat better—even with a packed schedule. From high-protein breakfasts to easy grab-and-go snacks, you’ll walk away with practical strategies to stay energized without overhauling your entire routine.

In this episode, you'll learn...

  • The link between nutrition and teacher burnout (and how to fix it). 
  • Quick, high protein breakfasts that actually keep you full. 
  • Easy, no-prep snacks to keep in your classroom for all-day energy.
