New School Year Fresh Start!

Ready or not here they come!!

22 incoming 6th graders will enter my classroom tomorrow morning at 9am eager and ready to learn.  (Hey a girl can dream right!?)  But seriously - I LOVE the fresh start of a new school year.  Being a teacher, September has always had more of a "New Year"feel than January for me.

I am excited to get this school year started with my new kiddos.  I have put a lot of work into changing things up in my classroom for this year.  I did a LOT of cleaning out, did some redecorating and am excited to try some new activities!

Going back to school means a shift in how I work my side hustle too!  I feel so fortunate to be able to shape lives in both my day job and side business.  They truly are both so rewarding. I am grateful to be able to fit both into my life... even with all I have going on!

Whether you work full time and have something going on on the side, or if you are a full time mama working a side hustle to help your family I always recommend TIME BLOCKING!!  That is the ONLY way I can accomplish all that I do on any given day. 

I can't believe I am admitting this in writing, but I must say that as much as I LOVE my summer freedom, I am looking forward to the more predictable routine that comes along with summer fading to fall....

And so #teachingsparkles was officially born! Okayyyy so what do I do?!  Basically I help people find and be their best possible selves.  I teach 6th grade Math and Social Studies full-time.  On the side I get to help busy women like myself lead healthier, cleaner, and more financially free lives! Here are some things you can expect to f...
