In this episode, I talk about the conditions shaping what we’re seeing in classrooms right now—especially around behavior, attention, and regulation—and why so many teachers are quietly questioning themselves because of it.

This isn’t a rant. It’s not about blaming kids or excusing behavior. 

It’s about reframing what’s happening so teachers can stop internalizing systemic shifts as personal failure—and start making choices that protect their sanity. 

I also share how I’ve adjusted my own classroom practice to stay grounded in a version of teaching that didn’t reset after the pandemic. 

If you’ve been wondering:

• Why does this feel harder than it should?
• Am I doing something wrong?
• How do I keep doing this without burning out?

This episode is for you.
