This one’s different.

In this raw and real episode, I’m sharing a moment I haven’t talked about before—a Thursday afternoon (or was it a Tuesday?) when the empty data binders, overdue progress reports, and sheer weight of teacher overwhelm broke me.

💔 Spoiler alert: I cried over progress monitoring.

But that breakdown led to a breakthrough—and a new system that changed everything. If you’ve ever asked yourself:

  • “How am I supposed to keep up with all of this?”
  • “What counts as valid data?”
  • “Why does this feel so hard?”

This episode is for you.

You’ll walk away with:
✅ A 5-step system for building your IEP data routine
✅ Real examples of what counts as meaningful, usable progress monitoring
✅ A weekly rotation system that works (and gives you your evenings back)
✅ The mindset shift that turns data from pressure → purpose

✨ You don’t have to track every goal every day. You just need a system that works.
If you're a busy special education teacher looking for tips, tricks, and resources to save you precious time, I've got you covered! I'm here to help you regain your confidence in the classroom and feel calm and collected as a special educator.
Tune in every Friday for practical tips, tools, and the support you need to to THRIVE in the classroom.
