0:00.0 | Well, hello there, top teachers. We are your host, Michelle Farray. |
0:04.3 | And Bridget Speckman, and we are here to make your life easier by helping you master your time, organization, and productivity as a teacher. |
0:12.6 | We have such a good episode for you all today. We are going to be revealing our secret for actually finishing your to-do list. |
0:20.5 | Not just like writing it down, but actually doing that to-do list. Not just like writing it down, but actually doing that |
0:23.3 | to-do list. Checking off those boxes and getting it done. Girl, I am really excited about this one. |
0:28.7 | So before we jump in, Bridget, I really want to know what has been your time-sucking hurdle this week? |
