I’ve been doing it again…. Falling into old patterns of burnout (the do, do, do mentality) and constantly seeking to be busy to avoid feeling bored or unworthy.

🚨🚨🚨
as we know, this nearly ALWAYS turns to dissatisfaction, exhaustion and frustration- leading to burnout, then the cycle continues.

I coach my clients on this, I share strategies on how to overcome it and break the cycle but even then I STILL catch myself repeating the pattern!! ⭕️

👉🏼 As an ADHD-er, the constant need for more and more dopamine and quick fixes is real but I have broke the cycle before and I will have to do it again!

Some signs of pre-burnout:
👉🏼 avoiding “boring” responsibilities and seeking more and more distractions (eg. Constant scrolling on TikTok or Instagram or going down random subject rabbit holes)
👉🏼 no motivation and avoiding “real” social interaction
👉🏼 overeating or drinking too much
👉🏼 negative self talk and gossiping
👉🏼 “not arsed” mentality more often and sleeping more or less than usual

This week I am EMBODYING what I preach and leaning into SIMPLICITY:
- Brian dump all events, to-dos and responsibilities on paper or in phone notes
- do, do later, delegate or delete (using Steven Coveys method outlined in my Anti-Burnout kit 🌴)
- ask for support or go EASY on yourself

Who is with me? ✨✨✨
This time LETS BREAK THE CYCLE 🔁

Why it just WORKS that I’m a teacher and life coach with ADHD ✨👇🏼

Two of my strongest personal values are AUTHENTICITY & MAKING A DIFFERENCE so my job just ticks all of those boxes.

It’s about 2 years since I was diagnosed officially with ADHD and since then I have not shied away from acknowledging that in my private and public life because I strongly feel that being vulnerable and normalising the neurodivergent experience is KEY to affecting change. 🤞🏼

In my work as a teacher for kids with additional educational needs I see every day the unconscious bias and stigma that still exists within the education system and in how some neurotypical people speak about additional needs without a true understanding of what it means to live as neurodivergent! ❤️

My hope is that, seeing people with influence and fame like or speak openly about their mental health and their experience of living with things like ADHD, Autism, Tourette’s and anxiety will encourage EVERYONE to speak up about their individual experiences with mental health disorders or neurodivergent brains so we can normalise and support them better in todays society!

Eventually I hope that this awareness will spread, people will become more self aware & self acceptance will lead to a more tolerant society…. I mean, what can go wrong? 😅
In the meantime, let’s just keep saying it like it is and listening to diverse experiences!

Reach out to me for more info on my coaching packages for teachers, & Listen to our new podcast for more insights on this and also how teaching is changing and evolving & how we can evolve with it.

EXCITING NEWS 📰🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Thrilled to announce that myself and will be launching our brand new PODCAST this month 😍❤️🎉

The podcast is called “Teachers in Therapy” and we hope to help break the stigma around people working in professional roles such as teachers going to therapy and working on their mental wellbeing! 🫶🏼

We hope to start conversations about teacher wellbeing and mental health and to help inspire people to take action to prevent/counteract Teacher Burnout and overwhelm, find a better work-life balance and be the best versions of themselves they can be.✨✨

We are so incredibly excited to begin this journey with you all and to share our journeys. We hope to have interviews with some inspiring guests in the education space, and to share some of our own thoughts on topics too.

We are so excited for this new venture and hope you’ll join is on this journey. 🙏 More updates to follow. In the meantime, you could give our new Podcast Insta page a wee follow if you like ❤️ GRMA

Is this you?🔽🔽

- you started off the school year with the best of intentions but it’s now 2 months in and you’re exhausted - those intentions have gone WAY out the window

- your plate is constantly being piled upon with new “initiatives”, constant asks of your time and energy and you just feel like you can’t say “no”

- you’ve signed up to wellness coaching & gym programmes in the past but you never stuck at them, forever making excuses as to why they’re not for you

- you’re not sure if you can take many more days of working late into the evening & not being able to fit any “you” time into your schedule

- you compare yourself to the teacher next door who seems to have their sh*t together and all of the work you do pales in comparison to their seemingly effortless teaching displays

You’re just tired 😴

✨ what if I told you there was a fix!

I used to be JUST like that 👆🏼
Feeling at my wits end & one simple task could knock me down off my barely balancing work pile.

Until I realised the power of keeping a promise to myself.

- self confidence comes from “just starting”, DOING what you say you’ll do and counting your mini wins! 🏆

TAKE IMPERFECT ACTION

🙌🏼Finish the year strong by joining me for The Thriving Teacher Method 1:1 coaching programme. It will make a huge difference to your life in 12 weeks and you can start 2024 strong and energetically.

The ‘self care plan’ that you never actually stick to rears its head again.
But this time it WILL be different.
Do you know why?

Because this time YOU are calling the shots. This time YOU will decide what self-care looks like for you.
You don’t need to listen to anyone else prescribe ‘10,000 steps a day, hug a tree, take CBD oil every night before bed, write a letter to your mom...whatever’ because that means NOTHING to you.

This Anti-Burnout Kit is not just a random list of nice fluffy things to do when you feel a bit tired, because you are not ‘just tired’, you are burned out (or getting to that stage!), and you are sick of the BS that got you here!
So it’s time for you to take back the wheel, get out of your own way and step-by-step start making a change that makes you feel good...and I mean genuinely FEEL GOOD.

In this 20 page downloadable and printable workbook, you will get an in-depth idea of how you can start making burnout a thing of the past with thought-provoking journal prompts, a no-BS approach to committing to this journey and a GOLDEN time-saving hack that will leave overwhelm back in 2023!

So if you’re ready to commit to your new anti-burnout plan, click buy now, and let’s get you going again!
