You can be doing an amazing job in education while quietly realizing that the way you're working isn't working for you.

In this episode, we're talking about Proverbs 4:23 and what “guard your heart” can look like in the real life of an educator.

We'll explore the tension between being dependable, successful, and committed at work while trying to protect your health, energy, peace, and life outside of education.

Because maybe the question isn't only, “Did I get everything done?”

Maybe we also need to ask:

What did getting everything done cost me?

Listen in, then grab your journal and reflect with me.
