In this episode, we discuss the temporary remedies that are ineffective at addressing our educators' burnout. In addition, as teachers go on summer break, they forget about the fatigue, trauma and burnout they experienced throughout the year as they are removed from the situation. They’re just putting a Band Aid on it and return back to school without effectively impacting it. Listen to this episode to find out about how the Summer Band-Aid Effect plagues educators, coaches and leaders each year, why we need to address it this summer more than ever and specific strategies to address it. I interview Keith, a phenomenal Teacher Leader, who shares his experiences applying research-based burnout interventions.
