75. Banish Those Sunday Scaries
Teaching is more than a job—it’s a passion. But that doesn’t mean it should take over your entire life. In this episode, we sit down with Jennifer, from Everything Just So, to tackle one of the biggest challenges teachers face: work-life balance.
Feeling burnt out? Overwhelmed by endless to-do lists? Constantly battling Sunday dread? You’re not alone. Today, we share practical strategies to help you:
- Set boundaries and protect your personal time
- Eliminate time-wasting tasks such as excessive laminating
- Create daily and weekly schedules to stay organised
- Say “no” to extra responsibilities without guilt
- Reduce stress by turning off work notifications
- Build systems and routines that save time and mental energy
Jennifer shares her own journey from burnout to balance, along with simple mindset shifts that will change the way you approach your workload—without sacrificing your passion for teaching.
It’s time to stop feeling guilty about prioritising yourself. Work-life balance isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. Tune in now and start making small changes that lead to big results.
Rainbows ahead,
Alisha and Ashleigh
