After 150 episodes without a break, I finally hit pause - and it was the best decision! But now we’re back with a mid-year check in and pep talk. Plus, I’m sharing what I learned during my three-month hiatus and how it’s brought fresh inspiration for the podcast. I’ve got lots of incredible guests lined up and plenty of actionable tips and resources coming your way in 2025!

You’ll hear me share the ups and downs of podcasting, including dealing with imposter syndrome and the pressure to create content that hits the mark for you! Your encouragement means the world to me, and I’d love to hear your feedback on what topics you’d like covered next. So send me a message anytime on Instagram @counselorclique!

You’re doing incredible work, and I want this podcast to always remind you of that! From managing overwhelming caseloads to making a difference in your students’ lives, I know your job isn’t easy. That’s why I’m here to cheer you on and provide tools to help. Don’t miss my free four-day email advocacy challenge - it’s perfect for National School Counseling Week and beyond!
