66- Juggling Being a Parent and a Music Teacher

66- Juggling Being a Parent and a Music Teacher

Juggling being a parent and a teacher is not easy.  In college, there's not a course that tells you "one day you'll be a parent and do this".  Wouldn't that be nice?  

The main takeaway I want you to get from this episode is to know that you're doing a better job than you think you are.  Just like when you became a teacher and it's all about just getting in there and doing it, and figuring it out as you go, the same goes for being a parent.  You'll have days where you feel guilt, or like you're not doing a good job, but these emotions and feelings are normal and you're allowed to feel them.

These blog posts will help give you even more insights into being a parent and a teacher:
