February is the month of love, and in this episode, we’re digging into the root of SERVICE—specifically, how our relationships with stakeholders (coworkers, administrators, special ed staff, guidance counselors, parents) shape our work as educators.
Let’s be real: Teaching is hard, especially when the very people who should be on our team don’t always feel like they are. So how do we stay grounded in our purpose? How do we show up with love and resilience, even when challenges arise?
I’m sharing the one phrase that keeps me centered when the pressure feels overwhelming—my personal connection to service—and how you can discover yours, too. Because when we remember why we do this work, we don’t just survive the hard days—we continue making a difference. 💡
🔹 Why service is the foundation of meaningful connections 🔹 A simple mindset shift that helps navigate difficult situations 🔹 Real-life stories of service in action—both with students and colleagues 🔹 How to create your own personal service affirmation to stay rooted in your purpose
🎧 Tune in now, and before you go, grab my Classroom Core Value Creator to uncover the words that will keep you inspired and intentional every single day!
💬 What’s your guiding phrase for service? Drop it in the comments or add it to the Lab In Every Lesson Facebook Page —I’d love to hear what keeps you going!
