February is brutal. Here's something that helps.
You're still showing up every day. That matters more than you know.
February can be brutal. You know it, I know it.
The stretch between January and spring break is the part nobody talks about when they're recruiting you into teaching. You're tired in a way that sleep doesn't fix. You're still showing up — because that's who you are — but you're running on fumes.
I've been in the classroom for 26 years. I'm not writing this from the other side. I'm right there with you.
Three years ago, I started Why Edify because I was tired of feeling like excellence had to cost me everything. I've been sending weekly newsletters since then, and you've stuck around — which I am extremely grateful for.
I've been building a library of courses and resources. Adding to it week by week.
Inside The STRONG Teacher's Lounge, you'll find two courses — The STRONG Teacher Course and The STRONG Year — specifically for this moment in the school year. Not the beginning when everything feels possible. Right now. February. When you need a framework, not a pep talk.
It's $79 for the whole year. One payment.
If you've been reading these emails thinking "I need more of this" — this is more of this.

P.S. If $79 isn't in the cards right now, no worries. Keep opening Wednesdays. I'm not going anywhere.
