Teaching is a great job but it can take over your life, physically, mentally and emotionally. When this happens, you can feel overwhelmed and wrung out. Boundaries are a great way to help you achieve balance in your life where teaching can be a valuable part of your life but not the whole thing.

What you will learn in this episode:

• The different types of boundaries

• Why boundaries are important

• Steps you can take to protect your boundaries

Boundaries are hard because as teachers, we are not taught how to manage them. However, it is crucial that you learn to manage your boundaries if you are after a long and fulfilling career in teaching. This week, notice where your boundaries are being threatened and make an incremental change to protect them.
