In this episode, we're diving into something every multi-prep middle and high school teacher needs but rarely talks about—confidence.

Juggling multiple preps can feel like a circus act, but what if I told you that confidence, not just organization, is your secret weapon?

We’re breaking down how trusting yourself, leveraging what already works, and celebrating progress, not perfection, can transform your teaching journey.

We'll also explore how technology, like AI, can ease your workload.

Tune in to build those confidence muscles so you can thrive, not just survive, in the classroom!
