Feeling drained and wondering if you can keep going? In our first "Teacher Talk" episode, Linda and Ashly respond to a veteran teacher who is running on empty. Join us as we unpack what's really behind this kind of burnout and share simple, practical steps to break the cycle. "I'm exhausted and I'm not sure what to do about it. I'm in my 24th year of teaching. I teach reasonable lessons, but I've always had trouble getting grading done. In the past year, the time I have usually spent on Saturdays planning and grading has greatly decreased due to family concerns. My concentration is shot. I stay up late trying to work, but it doesn't happen and then I lose sleep. The next day, I'm more tired and the same thing happens. Anyone ever been through this? Any ideas?"
