Why The 8 to 4 Teacher?
Welcome to The 8 to 4 Teacher — the new name, same mission, but with a clearer path forward. In this kickoff episode, I’m sharing why I’ve rebranded The Teacher Burnout Podcast and how this shift better reflects the support teachers really need.
We’re moving beyond just talking about burnout… and into building the habits, routines, and boundaries that help you leave school at 4—without guilt.
You’ll hear:
✅ The real reason teachers burn out (it’s not just the hours)
✅ What the “8 to 4 teacher” lifestyle means—and why it matters
✅ Why overthinking at home is just as draining as working late
✅ What to expect in our new seasonal podcast format
✅ A free resource to help you assess your biggest workload traps
