Rediscovering Joy: Self-Care Strategies for Early Childhood Professionals

  • Summary

  • Self-care is more than just bubble baths and relaxation—it’s about reconnecting with the joy that first brought you to your work. In this episode of Early Childhood Chapters, we’re joined by Dr. Teresa Byington, author of Find the Joyful Leader Within, to explore how educators and leaders can cultivate joy in their work and create positive, uplifting environments for themselves and their teams.

    Dr. Byington shares practical strategies for bringing joy into leadership, avoiding burnout, and building a culture that inspires both educators and children. From simple mindset shifts to actionable techniques like "joy spotting" and keeping a "joy journal," she offers a roadmap for transforming your daily work experience.

    Whether you're a teacher, administrator, or childcare professional, this conversation will empower you to lead with joy and purpose.
