In this episode of Sir, You Look Tired!, we’re calling out the culture that keeps teachers burnt out, guilt-ridden, and overworked.From late-night marking to skipping lunch just to stay afloat, it can feel like teaching demands everything. But here’s the truth:📌 Teaching is a job.📌 It’s not your whole identity.📌 And it’s not a life sentence.We’ve both been teacher martyrs in the past – laminating at midnight, running on caffeine, and feeling like failures if we ever left before 6pm. But all that effort? It didn’t make us better teachers. It just made us more exhausted.In this episode, we talk about:The myth of the “good teacher” who gives it allWhy teachers feel guilty for wanting time offHow school leadership shapes work-life balanceAnd what actually happens when you start setting boundariesThis one’s real. It’s raw. And it might just give you permission to finally stop pouring from an empty cup.👇 Let us know in the comments: What would YOU get rid of in education?
