Episode 66: What to do when you are feeling overwhelmed in teaching.
About this episode
Teaching can feel overwhelming — and sometimes it sneaks up on you before you even realise it. In this episode, we break down how to spot the early signs of overwhelm, the traps teachers fall into when they try to just “push through,” and what you can do instead to reset and protect your energy.
From snapping at small things to over-scheduling yourself into exhaustion, this is a real talk reminder that you can’t outrun overwhelm — but you can pause, breathe, and take small steps that make a big difference.
