Sometimes as a teacher, I feel emotionally numb or meh and I can participate in self destructive behaviors in order to cope.  I wanted to address these feelings and talk about something called the Change Triangle and how it can help you move away from negative emotions and into more positive ones to make you a healthier and happier teacher.

I went to the tpt conference, and I wanted to share all my juicy tidbits with you.  I hope you enjoy. This episode is long, but hopefully a smidge entertaining.  TPT conference is more about educational trends than anything because trends help sellers sell things.  As a teacher, it's good to know the trends, so you can be aware of those practices for next school year!
