Are you ready to get your life back?

As we look forward to all things 2023, This week we decided to drop back to our very first interview on Real Teacher Talk, I sat down with Sabrena Brooks, a busy teacher and mama to talk about how she balances school with her life and the tools she uses to make it happen.

Sabrena Brooks is a mom of two active boys with a baby girl on the way. She is a lover of camping and music, and wife to a special education para-educator by day and chef by night. Her teaching career includes kindergarten for one year, 1st grade for five years, and kindergarten ESL for one year. She has a master's degree in Teaching and Learning and was the distance learning teacher for 1st grade during the 2020-2021 school year.

Sabrena realized she needed help when she was staying at school every night until 6:30 and showing back up by 7 in the morning. She had no semblance of balance in her life. That’s when she joined my program Easy Organization Tools where I show teachers how to consistently leave school prepared at contract time so that they can be more fully present in their life.

Topics We Cover in This Episode: 

  • What Sabrena’s life looked like before the program
  • Sabrena's experience in the Easy Organization Tools program
  • How her life changed after she implemented what she learned
  • How the program alleviated the teacher/mom guilt
  • How Sabrena uses the tools in the program in her home as well

The organization tools Sabrena learned made all of the difference. She went from being a stressed-out, overworked teacher with no work-life balance to being a happy mom and teacher. She’s now able to be there for her kids and be fully present in her home life.

If you are ready to have a better year than you had last year and finally get your life back the way Sabrena did, make sure to join the 3 PM Teacher Training. You’ll learn how to consistently leave school prepared and on time without bringing work home!
