Dealing with Teacher Guilt

Have you ever experienced teacher guilt? Chances are that you have because it is very real and very common. The truth is, teachers have such big hearts! We want to help everyone. Whether that’s our team, our admin, our students, or their families, we are always there, even if it’s at the expense of our own happiness or our time with our family. Teacher guilt is often the result of things like the pressure to not let anyone down, not wanting our team to think we are lazy, or not wanting to add on any work for anyone else. Sound familiar? We are so worried about everyone else, but what about us? What can we do to overcome that? In this episode of Real Teach Talk, I’m sharing how you can conquer teacher guilt for good.You can choose teacher guilt or you can choose family guilt because by saying yes to everything the admin asks of you, you are saying no to your family and mental health. Do you really want to do all those extra tasks? You might be surprised about what actually happens when you start prioritizing yourself. Tune into this episode to learn more about why it’s time to start prioritizing yourself, setting boundaries, and why saying no to extra tasks may actually pay off in the long run. I would love to connect on Facebook: facebook.com/EasyTeachingTools & Instagram: instagram.com/easyteachingtools!Resources Mentioned:Join the Easy Teaching Tools Primary Teachers Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/easyteachingtoolsprimaryteachers/Join the 3 PM Teacher Training Waitlist: https://easyteachingtools.com/podcastwaitlistShow notes available at easyteachingtools.com/episode2Register for the 3 PM Teacher Training at www.easyteachingtools.com/3pmteacher!I would also appreciate it if you would leave me a review on Apple and a rating on Spotify!I read each of them, and they help me make sure I am providing the content that you love to hear!
