Ep 304: Keeping Your Balance- Staying Sane When You’re Juggling Too Many Preps
Description
Ever feel like you’re juggling way too many classes, lesson plans, and expectations as a secondary teacher with multiple preps?
In this episode, I’m sharing real talk about finding balance—no superhero moves required! I’ll show you three sanity-saving strategies (think boundaries, batching, and mistake-proofing routines) that helped me survive teaching three or more preps year after year.
We’ll chat about how to simplify your workflow, set limits without guilt, and use classroom systems that actually give you time back.
If you’re searching for advice on teacher burnout, time management, classroom routines, or ways to stay sane with a packed teaching schedule, grab your earbuds—this episode’s for you!
