Are You Caught in the Over-Achiever's Trap?

Do you work hard but it never feels enough? 

Do you push yourself even when your exhausted? 

Do you feel guilty if you take a few minutes for yourself? 

Let’s talk about a sneaky danger in teaching — one that doesn’t always look like burnout. 

It looks like being the reliable one. The responsible one. The one who says yes, who stays back, who keeps smiling. 

But underneath? 
You’re exhausted. Resentful. One more “yes” away from breaking. 

This is The Over-Achiever’s Trap — and it’s celebrated in schools every single day. 

You get praise for doing more, helping more, giving more. 
But at what cost? 

If your worth is tied to how much you do for others — and you’re constantly last on your own list — you’re not thriving. You’re slowly disappearing. 

I know this pattern because I lived it. And it’s exactly why I created The Reignite Room — a monthly membership that helps teachers stop running on empty and start living with clarity, compassion and boundaries that stick. 

But first, let’s name the pattern, identify where we are and take back control of our mental and emotional self. 

I created this short guide to help you spot the 5 warning signs of over-functioning, and what to do instead.
