You’re not lazy. You’re depleted. There’s a difference. In this short Bathroom Break episode of Hall Pass, Oliver unpacks the dangerous lie so many educators internalize: that if they’re tired, they must not be trying hard enough. Spoiler alert—you’re likely working harder than ever. This is your reminder that rest is not weakness, and burnout is not a character flaw. Take a deep breath. You’re not broken.

Bathroom Break 001 - You’re Not Lazy

Hall Pass is the podcast for teachers on the edge of burnout - or already deep in it - who are ready to stop surviving and start reclaiming their sanity. Hosted by a longtime educator who has been in the trenches (and the staff meetings), this show is your permission slip to question the system, protect your energy, and redefine what it means to be a ”good teacher.” 

Expect honest conversations, short bursts of real talk, and practical ways to take your life back - without quitting your job tomorrow (unless that’s your plan). No toxic positivity. No glitter. Just the pass you didn’t know you needed.
