Manage episode 444973836 series 3225163
This week on the ILP Podcast, we explore the importance of setting healthy boundaries both in and out of the classroom to protect your time, energy, and mental health. The emotional toll of teaching can often lead to burnout if we don’t take steps to safeguard our time and energy.
I Discussed:
- Why boundaries are critical for maintaining your mental well-being.
- Tips for setting clear work-life boundaries (e.g., avoiding work emails after hours, saying no to extra responsibilities, and delegating tasks when possible).
- How to communicate boundaries to students, colleagues, and administration in a respectful yet firm way.
- The relationship between boundary-setting and self-care.
