Summary

Self care for teachers begin with starting small

Self care, friends, is one of the most important things that you can do, not just as a CEO Teacher ®, but in general for your life. Currently, I’m finding self care strategies even more important because, with fall upon us, I’m dealing with Seasonal Affective Disorder. For those of you unfamiliar, Seasonal Affective Disorder (or S.A.D. for short…) is a type of depression that begins each fall and can continue through winter. Symptoms include things like anxiety, depression, and overwhelm. As I’ve grown older, however, self care activities are the only way I know how to combat S.A.D. And today’s guest is going to talk you through how a teacher self care routine may not only combat S.A.D, but how it may also improve your life.

Today, Brooklyn offers one-on-one coaching as well as an 8 week group program. With a client roster of teachers from all over the globe, Brooklyn is going to not only share her self care activities for teachers, she is also going to share how she took her passion for self care and turned it into a thriving business.

Hey friends and welcome back to the CEO Teacher podcast. This interview guest is by popular request.

0:07.3

We are interviewing Brooklyn Powell here from Teachers Gone Strong. Brooklyn is a former educator

0:13.8

that now helps teachers get fit and feel better about themselves in all kinds of ways. You know, self-care is one of the

0:24.7

most important things that you could possibly do, not just as a teacher, but in general with your

0:29.5

life. If you're anything like me, this season, I am super struggling with seasonal affective

0:34.7

disorder. I struggle with it every year, which if you aren't familiar,

0:37.5

is just feeling anxiety and depressed and overwhelmed around the fall in winter months when the sun

0:43.1

isn't shining as much. And it is just something that has happened to me since I was a little

0:47.2

girl. And as I've gotten older, I've really learned to be aware and try to implement new

0:52.6

strategies to make myself feel better, like using

0:54.6

therapy lights and getting outside more. And just really sharing about it helps me get through

0:59.4

it and it helps me connect with like-minded people. But today we're going to share, yes, about how to

1:05.4

talk about self-care and what's important, but we are also going to look at the back end of

1:10.7

Brooklyn's business,

which is what we do here at the CEO teacher. We want to show you amazing opportunities

1:17.3

that are available to teachers all over the world. And Brooklyn is no exception to what makes

1:23.5

an amazing CEO teacher the best that they can be. She took what she was passionate about,

1:29.2

and she created a business. Brooklyn has since left the classroom, although you'll hear in the

1:34.6

interview, she even enjoyed teaching, just as I did, but she found another opportunity that

1:41.1

was helping teachers on a more personal level, and she gets to do that every

1:45.7

single day inside of her tiered coaching business. So we're going to talk about what that looks like,

1:51.1

because being a coach for other people is really a great gift that teachers automatically have.
