83. Permission to Move On

In this honest and heartfelt episode, Lisa shares an important truth: if you no longer love your role as a special education teacher, it’s okay to make a change. Whether that means switching grade levels, moving to a new building, stepping into a different role, or even leaving special education entirely—your happiness, mental health, and sense of purpose matter. This episode offers a mix of personal reflection, tough love, and gentle permission to stop staying in spaces that drain you. Because doing what’s best for you ultimately benefits your students, too.Resources Mentioned: Free training: 3 Simple and Powerful Ways to Cultivate Independence in Your Special Education Classroom Show Notes: https://chalkboardsuperhero.com/episode83
