Episode 58: Teaching and Mental Health
In this episode, I dive into the complex relationship between teaching and mental health. Educators face unique challenges—balancing heavy workloads, emotional demands, and often limited resources—all of which can take a toll on their mental well-being. I explore the pressures teachers face both inside and outside the classroom, discuss signs of burnout, and share practical strategies for maintaining mental health in the profession. Whether you're a teacher, a school leader, or simply interested in the well-being of educators, this episode offers valuable insights and real-world perspectives on supporting mental health in education.
