Summer is here.
Although for me, summer started long before June 20.
In addition to running See Jane Write, I’m a teacher, so for me summer began the moment I left work on the last day of school.
But I am also a small business owner.
For the teacherpreneur summer is a difficult dance.
We want to take a break. We need to take a break. We deserve to take a break.
But we also know that summers are for slaying. We know that with no papers to grade and no lectures to write, we have the opportunity to take our businesses to the the next level.
But we also know we can’t pour from an empty cup. We know that we need to rest. We know self-care is a feminist act.
After the school year ended, my husband and I took a short trip to visit his hometown. I lounged around reading books. We went to the movies and to the beach. We ate way too much food and spent quality time with family and friends.
But now it’s time to get back to work. Now it’s time to slay.
