Monday Mindset: Your Non-Negotiables
from Teaching Middle School ELA Hosted by Caitlin Mitchell
As a teacher, it's very likely a large portion of your identity is "teacher" - perhaps even your entire identity. It is so deeply embedded into the fabric of who you are that sometimes it might be difficult to separate your teacher identity from the other areas of your life. Resulting in burnout, exhaustion, frustration, and perhaps even losing a sense of self outside of teaching. What sparked today's Monday Mindset topic was a conversation with some of my friends who are also female business owners. And my friends shared with me that they were feeling like their entire identity was being consumed by their business. And that they were losing incredibly important relationships in their lives - with their partners, with their friends ... even with their children. Because I know many teachers feel this same way about their own identities, I thought today's Monday Mindset around how creating and enacting non-negotiables in my life quite literally changed my life. I invite you to listen in today. And if you haven't watched one of these yet, this is the one I'd really like for you to listen to, take in, and think about. Here's to another great week, living intentionally. Caitlin
