The World is on Fire! What Can We Actually Control Right Now? - BNT Team Meeting [Ep 290]
Thursday, 19 March, 2026
Some days the classroom feels completely out of your control, and honestly, sometimes it is. In this solo pep talk, I focus on what we can control, from navigating student anxiety during course selection season to unpacking how post-COVID habits are impacting their coping skills. I share real conversations I’m having with students about goals and trade-offs, along with how I’m balancing my own priorities and making tough decisions in my program. This episode is all about small, practical shifts - thinking in terms of what you’re willing to invest, what you need to let go of, and how to make deposits into your energy, time, and emotional “bank account".Resources:Become a founding beta tester of Brave New Teaching University.Watch BNT episodes on YouTube!Shop Our Faves.Related Episodes:Episode 281, SEL and Organic Community Really Are This Simple - BNT Team MeetingEpisode 283, Resistant Readers Need the Four Reading Realms: A Walkthrough - BNT Team MeetingEpisode 288, Pardon Us - STOP Meeting Students Where They Are?!?! - BNT Team Meeting✨ SHOW NOTES: https://www.bravenewteaching.com/home/episode290"Send us a message - please include your contact information so we can chat soon!"Head to bravenewteaching.com/waitlist to become a beta tester for BNT University!Support the show📚 BNT PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT & RESOURCES 👩💻Join Happy Hour!Curriculum RehabDown with the Reading QuizShop the BNT Resource LibraryConnect with us on Instagram @bravenewteachingSubscribe to our YouTube Channel
