New Podcast: Flip-Flops and Sunshine: A Summer Reset for Educators

After another intense school year, it’s time to take a breath—and maybe even take off your shoes. Welcome to the latest episode of the Why Edify Podcast, where we’re embracing the lighter, more playful energy of summer while diving deep into what educators truly need right now: restoration.

From grounding practices like walking barefoot to rethinking productivity during summer break, this episode is both a pause and a path forward.
