Have you found yourself staring at a stack of ungraded papers and wondering if you care as much as you used to? Teaching is a heart-centered profession, but we all know that the pressures and emotional toll of being in the classroom can leave even the most dedicated educators feeling frustrated, exhausted, or emotionally detached. If you’ve noticed yourself counting down the years to retirement or just going through the motions to make it through the day, our guest today will help you understand why that’s happening and what you can do about it.

Mandy Froelich is joining me today to chat all about educator mental health. We’re looking at the realities of educator engagement and disengagement, why teachers lose their spark, and how to get it back. Mandy shares the warning signs of disengagement, the differences between burnout and demoralization, and the seven reasons teachers might start to disconnect from their work, and practical strategies for re-engagement.
