"I\u2019m so worried about the upcoming school year.\u201d\xa0

\u201cI\u2019m already struggling to be a good mom and a good employee. Now I have to be a good teacher too?!\u201d\xa0

\u201cI have such high standards for myself. I\u2019m afraid of my perfectionism as school starts again.\u201d\xa0

\u201cI\u2019m afraid for my health and for my child\u2019s health.\u201d\xa0

\u201cI feel like I\u2019m choosing my job over my kid\u2019s health.\u201d\xa0

Do any of these sound at all like the thoughts and feelings you\u2019re having right now as the 2020 school year approaches?\xa0So many of us are facing such uncertain and difficult times as we attempt to figure out how to handle the school year as our country is still gripped by the COVID-19 epidemic.\xa0\xa0

We\u2019ve heard from you loud and clear that you are looking for psych strength resources to help you cope through this year, and that is precisely why we recorded this episode.\xa0

This episode is NOT an episode to teach you \u201c10 Quick Mindset Tips to Force Yourself to Think Positively\u201d or \u201c5 Ways to Fit it All\xa0In\xa0and Do It Perfectly.\u201d\xa0

This episode is\xa0grounded in reality. In the reality that many of us will be facing a very difficult school year.\xa0\xa0

But, here\u2019s the thing. While there are many circumstances that are outside of our control as the school year\xa0opens up, we do have control over a few things. How we react. The boundaries we set. What we choose to be important and how we focus on it. The way we treat ourselves in the process.\xa0

This episode is for you if you\u2019re looking for some psych strength building techniques to help you thrive through this school year.\xa0Thriving through adversity is a real thing. It doesn\u2019t mean that you have an EASY time. It means that you grow as a person, even when times are tough.\xa0

You can do this. We\u2019re here to help.\xa0
