More Than One Hat: Life Beyond the Classroom w/ Caitlin LeBrun

Caitlin LeBrun reflects on the lived experience of balancing multiple identities—educator, parent, writer, and creative thinker. Drawing on her work as a Learning Support teacher and her personal journey navigating teaching alongside creative writing and family life, she explores the challenges and rewards of building a sustainable life in education.   Together, we unpack the pressure educators often feel to center their entire identity around school, and why creative pursuits, personal passions, and time beyond the classroom are essential or long-term well-being. This conversation offers an honest and reflective look at burnout, balance, and what it means to support the whole person behind the educator role.
