In this heartfelt mini-episode, Grace shares a "Lunchbox Love Note" to help teachers navigate the dreaded Sunday Scaries. As winter break ends and the hustle of teaching looms, many educators feel a mix of anxiety, dread, and resentment. Grace reminds you that these feelings are normal—and that you’re not alone.
💡 What You'll Learn in This Episode:
- 🌈 Why it’s okay to feel conflicted about going back to school.
- 🛑 How to stop guilt from stealing your joy today.
- ❤️ A reminder that at least one student—and likely more—is eagerly waiting for the safe, calm, and structured environment you provide.
- 💪 Why you don’t need a “new year, new you” resolution—just a return to the joyful, unexhausted version of yourself.
✨ Teacher Takeaways:
- You’re human, and your emotions are valid.
- You became a teacher to make an impact, and that impact is felt deeply—even if it doesn’t always show.
- Remember: students who test boundaries often need your calm, consistent care the most.
📌 Actionable Advice:
- Give yourself permission to feel your feelings without guilt.
- Focus on the joy and impact you bring to your students.
- Ditch overwhelming resolutions—small, healthy habits are the key to feeling better.
