How to Get Planned, Prepped, and Organized Without Working 24/7 with Stephanie Palovchik
08/10/22 • 28 min
Do you take your school work home every weekend? Do you check work emails on the weekend? If the answer to these questions is yes, then you may think it’s not even possible to stop doing these things. You may also find it challenging to get any real planning done during contracted hours. As teachers, the lines behind work time and personal time can get very blurry very quickly...even after the back-to-school craziness has come and gone.
If you feel like you’re working 24/7, then you’re going to love hearing from today’s guest, productivity expert, Stephanie Palovchik. She really knows a thing or two about productivity and honing in on systems so that the overwhelm doesn't last you all year long.
