Hey there! I'm Emily.

I’m an elementary teacher and Teacher Wellness Advocate. I help educators who are struggling with the demands of the job due to the demands of life outside the classroom. Using an innovative system of personal inventory, structured goal-setting, and mindset shifts, I show teachers how to ease feelings of guilt or comparison and begin to feel whole again.

I believe that putting ourselves first and our students second can actually make us better teachers.

How can I help you?

Any of the following statements resonate with you?

You've been teaching for years. You've survived administrator after administrator, initiative after initiative, difficult parent after difficult parent. You're burnt out and wondering why you stay.

You just started teaching within the past few years. The sparkle may have faded a bit, but you're settling in to what works for you as a professional. You've got a solid teacher tribe going, but you find yourself in a comparison loop with those around you and on social media. You feel like you could be more involved, more knowledgeable, or more present, but you're not sure where to start.

You're a student teacher or will begin student teaching soon. Everything is shiny and the possibilities are endless. You've got a picture in your head of the Pinterest-worthy classroom you want to create someday, and you can imagine the faces of your future students. But...you don't know what you don't know. You need an objective, honest teacher-sister to help show you a guaranteed path forward.

You're a great teacher and feel confident in what you do, but it feels like other parts of your life could be tightened up. You have your to-do list, your shopping list, your teacher planner, your day planner...and nothing seems to be lining up.

You've got a firm grasp on your routines and systems outside the classroom, but you're struggling with getting your mojo back at work. The constant changes in education are making you feel even more overwhelmed. Your administrators are on a different page than you, and it sometimes feel like a completely different planet. Your students' parents are frustrating you

I can get you started!

DIG DEEP

My favorite thing is finding out something new about myself, or a new understanding of why I do the things I do. I’ll show you some of the best tools to uncover what really works for you, not just what sounds good for someone else. There is always something new to discover about yourself!

APPLY IT

Once you know how you work and what fires you up, I can show you how to actually put it to use! Take it from someone who’s spent years (and $) learning about myself and then staying exactly the same because I didn’t know how to move forward. I want to be, for you, the person I needed back then.

LIVE IT

Package up what you’ve learned and go out there with your new, improved life!

But keep in mind that continuous learning and reflection are essential to true growth. This is the hardest part, so I’ll equip you with tools like a roadmap, accountability, and support for as long as you want it!
