Freedom From the Obligatory Teacher Duty Trap: Reclaim Your Time Without Guilt

Are you drowning under a pile of extra "duties" no one else wants - graduation planning, coaching teams, chairing committees? So many teachers get stuck on the never-ending obligatory duty carousel, scared to get off for fear of looking like a slacker or letting students down. This toxicity has to stop!

In this must-listen episode, learn a powerful mindset shift to escape the black hole of undesirable duties without burning bridges. Host Grace Stevens shares the exact script to push back professionally while still being a team player. Discover how to:

šŸ’” Plant seeds early for a smooth "succession plan" transitionĀ 
šŸ’” Say "Yes" without being handcuffed to the task forever
šŸ’” Shut down guilt trips from manipulative colleagues or adminsĀ 
šŸ’” Advocate for duties aligned with YOUR strengths and passions
šŸ’” Learn the powerful "Yes, AND" strategy, because setting boundaries is not always a yes/no proposition

You pour your heart into nurturing students, but that doesn't mean signing up for every soul-sucking obligatory chore that lands on your plate. Learn how to draw healthy boundaries without jeopardizing your reputation or good standing.Ā
