Beginning Teacher Talk: A Podcast for New Elementary Teachers

I’ve always found it interesting that our mind can trick us into thinking the opposite of what we know to be true when we’re stressed or in survival mode, which is exactly the stage you’re in at the beginning of the school year. But I don’t want you to go down that spiral and start the year off on a negative note, but instead, positively. In today’s episode, I’m sharing 3 mindset shifts and reminders for you to remember at the start of the school year.
