Let me set a scene for you. You're at work. It's 2:00 and you haven't sat down all day, haven't had a chance to unpack your bag from that morning, and yet you still haven't checked anything off of your to-do list. Sound familiar? I'm sure it does! As school counselors we are hit with emergencies, pop-up meetings, and so many other things that take us away from our original plans. While all of these things come with the job, there are habits and tools that you can put in place to reduce your overwhelm and increase efficiency.  Our guest today, Alaina Schrader, has spent years discovering productivity hacks that have changed her life and she's here to share them with you!  PS: Don’t forget to sign up for the Reset for Success Challenge! You can grab your game board here. You could be the winner of a Counselor Clique tumbler, $50 TPT gift card, and custom sticker pack! Resources Mentioned: Download your game board here!
