Are you struggling with teacher burnout and longing to rediscover the joy and purpose in your teaching career?
You're not alone, and there's a path forward to help you find that fulfillment again.
Join us in today’s episode where I am joined by Lily Jones, the founder of Educator Forever.
Lily shares her journey and experiences, guiding us through the importance of reconnecting with our 'why' – the core reason that drew us to teaching and how this can transform stress into a source of strength and joy.
We explore essential strategies for teacher well-being, emphasizing the importance of self-care and professional development in creating a more sustainable and fulfilling teaching experience.
We also tackle the myth that hard work and joy can't coexist in the teaching profession and the needed change in the education system.
Tune in to learn simple ways to bring back your love for teaching and see your work in a happier, new way.
Stay empowered,
Jen
