What is the #1 thing you're looking forward to in the summer? Is it the freedom from schedules, the ability to use the bathroom whenever you want, the relief from preparing lesson plans, or perhaps all of the above? I feel you. I love every aspect of summer too, but I've also experienced how quickly it can slip away, leaving me without the relaxation and rejuvenation I had hoped for.

That's why I'm beyond excited for you to tune in to this extraordinary episode featuring Becca Silver, an exceptional instructional coach and the founder of The Whole Educator. She will dive deep into the "band-aid effect" of the summer, where we mistakenly believe that just because we're in the summer, we'll automatically get the rest we need. Becca will reveal why that's not true and guide us through seven transformative strategies to make a real difference.

In this episode, it's not about strategies or ideas for our students; it's about prioritizing ourselves. Today, the spotlight is on you. Today, we put ourselves first. So, hit play now and give yourself the importance and care you truly deserve. This episode will empower you to transform your summer and emerge with a renewed sense of well-being. Don't wait any longer—take the time for yourself and listen now.

Now more about Becca Silver. Becca Silver is the founder and CEO of The Whole Educator. She is a highly energetic and knowledgeable trainer who approaches leadership development with transformational coaching skills and strategies. Becca is a former educator, instructional coach, life coach and performance coach. Her training programs and customized one-on-one coaching work focuses on fostering teacher buy-in and removing barriers caused by resistance to change. She has worked with instructional coaches and school leaders in districts across the US, including FL, KY, NC, SC and MA. She believes that, when looking to improve teachers' effectiveness, adult mindsets and motivations matter. We need teachers educating the whole child. And we need leaders and coaches impacting the whole educator.
