We are discussing the importance of setting boundaries as a new teacher in your career. Just like our students, we are whole people - we are more than our careers as teachers. During this episode, Kerry shares her teaching story and tips to help us start setting boundaries as teachers. Here we go!

What does it mean to be you as a whole person? What are some other aspects of your life?

Think about your why and how does this "yes" support your why
Be kind to yourself and why you are saying "yes."
