The past few years have been especially stressful and exhausting for teachers. Students still have not fully adjusted to being back in the classroom and we have been seeing more behaviors than we have in the past. That means that now more than ever, coping strategies and true self care are so crucial for teachers.
In this episode, Kelsey Sorenson of Wife Teacher Mommy is joining me to talk all things self care. She is sharing actionable tips to help you balance all your different roles, how to conceptualize events in a way that will impact how you feel about them, and the upcoming Educate and Rejuvenate event.
