🌟Time for a New Approach?


Hi Reader,

If you're feeling stuck or like you’re just “getting through” the school year right now, you’re not alone. Spring can hit hard—and if you’re running on fumes, I see you.

If so, here’s something to think about:
👉 What would it feel like to teach in a way that aligns with your energy, values, and strengths—not someone else’s system?

If you’re dreaming of more freedom, creativity, and flexibility in your teaching life, it might be time to start exploring what’s possible.

Burnout isn't always from doing too much, it can also be from NOT doing enough of what lights us up.
👉 What is keeping you from being able to do more of what you love?

💡 This Week’s Quick Tip for Teacher Entrepreneurs:
Save a photo of your business card (with a QR code) to your phone.
Whether you’re networking at a coffee shop, chatting at a school event, or even just running errands—you never know when someone will ask what you do. A quick, scannable image in your camera roll is an easy, professional way to connect on the spot.

✨ Bonus points if it links to a Linktree, your website, or a clear contact form.

Here's mine for reference:

More support is coming your way soon, but for now, take one small step.
You never know what door it might open.

Cheering you on always,
Rachel

Hi Reader, If you could change one thing about traditional classroom teaching… what would it be? Would you ask for smaller class sizes? More autonomy? Fewer meetings? More time for actual teaching instead of paperwork? This is one of the first questions I ask teachers who are beginning to imagine life outside of the traditional classroom. Because that “one thing” is usually a clue—something deeper is waiting underneath. That frustration often points to your core values: What matters most to...

teacher burn out, teacher overwhelm

Dear Reader, Over the past week, I shared a free Financial Literacy 101 training opportunity, and I hope it was helpful to those who joined! But today, I wanted to shift gears and reconnect in a different way. If you’ve been juggling all the things—teaching, business-building, life—you’re not alone. Truthfully?
