EP183 How one teacher set boundaries and stopped bringing work home

<p>Jessica H. shares how she balances home and work: “I realized that being a good teacher came at a really high price for me, at the expense of my family, relationships, and health. One day I decided that that price was higher than I was willing to pay. So I asked, “If I were to thrive — not just survive, but thrive — in my professional life, what would that look like? What would I have to do (and stop doing) to thrive?”</p> <p>I encourage you to listen for specific things Jessica’s done to create boundaries and consider how you could find approaches that work for you. We’re not prescribing a one-size-fits-all approach here. My hope is that Jessica’s story will inspire you to think outside the box and figure out a schedule that allows YOU to have clearer boundaries between home and work and more time for self-care.</p> <p>If you want to learn more about the new 40 Hour Fast Track (a 6-week program I’m offering in January), go here: <a href= "https://40htw.com/join/">40htw.com</a></p> <p><a href= "http://thecornerstoneforteachers.com/truth-for-teachers-podcast/how-to-set-boundaries-and-stop-bringing-work-home/"> Click here to read the transcript and participate in the discussion</a> or, <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/truthforteachers/">join our new podcast Facebook group here</a> to connect with other teachers and discuss the Truth for Teachers' podcast episodes.</p>
