Episode 325: First-Year Burnout, Sprinkling Magic, and Resetting the Gym Routine

Author: Real Rap With Reynolds October 30, 2025 Duration: 1:08:28

This week on Sunday Night Teacher Talk, CJ dives into the real stuff teachers are navigating—burnout in the early months, resetting energy and habits, and how to bring “sprinkle magic” to your classroom without losing your mind. We also get real about romantic relationships in middle and high school, how to spot great leadership when job hunting, and how to keep your class culture joyful and grounded—even when you're exhausted.
