Release

Here’s your midweek boost - a quote, a resource, and an affirmation to power you through the rest of the week.

Quote

"You wanna fly, you got to give up the thing that weighs you down." — Toni Morrison

Resource

As summer invites reflection, ask yourself: What’s been weighing me down this year—mentally, emotionally, or professionally? Try this simple practice: write down one thought, habit, or responsibility that no longer serves you. Then, beside it, write what might grow in its place if you set it down. Releasing doesn’t always mean quitting—it can mean choosing differently, more freely.

Now Repeat…

I honor my growth by releasing what no longer serves me. I am free to choose what lifts me up.

Journal Prompt

What is one weight I’ve been carrying that I’m ready to set down—and what freedom might take its place?

If this message resonates, share it with a fellow teacher who could use a reminder of their own strength and freedom. I’d also love to hear what you’re letting go of—just hit reply and share your thoughts.
