Beating Burnout

I recorded a podcast episode!  The lovely Rowena Hicks invited me to take part in her ‘Beat Teacher Burnout’ podcast. 

I found it quite challenging to record this episode to be honest, as I had to open up and be really vulnerable about how I was ill a few years ago.  At the time I didn’t recognise my symptoms as burnout, I just struggled more and more to fulfil my roles as Director of Education, daughter to an elderly and declining mother, and wife.

I am sharing this because all of us experience moments of exhaustion and overwhelm, and I hope that the strategies that I learned when I was at my worst may benefit others.
