You don’t need permission to rest—you need a plan to protect it.
Join the 2025 Restful Teacher® Challenge
The Ripple Effects of Rest
Join us December 26–30, 2025 for a free 5-day video series for educators who are ready to reset, reclaim their energy, and create sustainable rhythms that serve both them and their communities.
You hold everyone else together while quietly falling apart.
You pour into everyone else...
Let this be a space that pours into you.
This December, give yourself a different kind of gift.
One that doesn’t demand more
One that helps you reclaim what burnout has stolen.
The Restful Teacher® Challenge is a guided experience designed for educators who are tired of performing, overgiving, and constantly recovering.
You’ll learn how your rest isn't selfish—it's strategy.
And that rest is a radical act of self and community care that changes everything.
Resting doesn’t mean quitting—it means recalibrating.
“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation—and that is an act of political warfare.” — Audre Lorde
This challenge is rooted in that truth. Each day, you’ll explore how intentional rest ripples outward—into your students, your colleagues, your family, and your leadership. You'll hear from powerful voices who’ve dared to disrupt the systems that told them rest was a reward.
Who This Is For
This challenge is for the teacher or leader who:
-
Is always “on” and quietly exhausted
-
Knows something has to shift—but doesn’t know where to start
-
Craves rest, but feels guilty slowing down
-
Wants practical ways to reset without waiting for summer
-
Is ready to reclaim their peace and model a new way forward
You won’t need to show up live.
No Zooms. No meetings. No extra stress. You’ll receive one email a day. Go at your pace.
Rest is not a reward after burnout; it’s a boundary that prevents it.
What We'll Explore Together
Each episode is grounded in powerful truths. You’ll be guided through these five liberating reframes by the brilliant women below:
You are not broken. You are responding to a system that never paused to care for you.
