More time for me. That's the simple goal behind these changes. When your cup is empty, you can't pour into others. This journey is about refilling my own cup so I can show up as the best version of myself for my students, loved ones, and most importantly, for me. #edusky #teacherselfcare #Recharge

Let's talk about teacher burnout... It's not weakness; it's a sign that we're pushing ourselves beyond our limits. The last couple of years have taught me that ignoring the signs only leads to bigger problems. Your health - mental and physical - is your greatest asset. #teacherselfcare #edusky

This isn't about working less; it's about working smarter and living fuller. It's about having the energy to enjoy life beyond the classroom walls. Imagine what you could do with more peace and less stress! #LiveYourBestLife #BeyondTheClassroom #worklifebalance #teacherselfcare #edusky

The biggest game-changer? Going part-time! This was a huge decision, but in the end, a no-brainer. Time for my own well-being, hobbies, and family- It's an investment in my health and my ability to be a better teacher when I am in school.

I'm excited for the next big change... Moving to a different year group! It might sound daunting, but for me, it's exactly what I need to stop feeling stuck. Sometimes breaking the routine is exactly what you need to find your teaching joy!

One of the hardest, but most impactful, changes I'm making is dropping additional responsibilities. It felt good to be helpful, but it was unsustainable. This year, I'm learning to say no more often.

Big changes! After a challenging year for my mental health, I knew something had to give. I made some moves to prioritize my well-being. Here's a peek at the all new Nerdy classroom – the first step!

Spent the long weekend doing Christmassy things- the tree is up, my house is overrun with gingerbread men, and I've made a whole bunch of recycled candles 💖

Spectacular article, a definite must read... "rather than trying to minimize screen time, people should try to maximize creativity time." All the YES!

I made this Clevertouch Cheat Sheet for my colleagues a couple of years ago, most of them still have it laminated and pinned beside their board for reference! 🤓

Had a very stimulating conversation with @kesalisbury.bsky.social over lunch yesterday, where we got geeky over spreadsheets, chatting about IMPORTRANGE and VLOOKUP and excitedly showing one another examples, as our colleagues looked on, mildly appalled... 🤣
