Small Steps Make STRONG Teachers (Live Reflection on Rest, Boundaries, and Wellbeing)

This episode is a live reflection inspired by a recent STRONG Teacher newsletter titled “Small Steps Make STRONG Teachers.”

Recorded as a livestream, this conversation looks back on lessons from the 12-Day Winter Reset and reflects on what actually helps teachers stay grounded during demanding seasons.

Rather than big overhauls or dramatic change, this episode focuses on small, sustainable steps—rest, presence, creativity, boundaries, and community—that make teaching more human and more livable over time.

In this live reflection, we explore:

- Why slowing down—even briefly—can create meaningful shifts

- How rest, nature, creativity, and presence support teacher wellbeing

- Why boundaries are essential (and challenging) for educators

- Highlights and insights from the Winter Reset community

- What’s next in the Winter Reflection Series
