Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If your prep time disappears, your lunch is rushed (or skipped), and you’re taking work home again, this episode is for you. Erica is joined by Adva Hanan to talk directly to classroom teachers about the real-time management struggles no one prepares you for.
This honest conversation breaks down practical strategies teachers can actually use—setting boundaries in the classroom, creating focused planning time, managing the never-ending demands of the day, and finding space for self-care without the guilt. It’s not about doing more—it’s about doing what matters and protecting your energy so you can show up for your students.
They also share how teachers can continue this learning at the Early Education Empowerment Conference, a space designed to support educators with tools, connection, and strategies that make teaching more sustainable.
