In this third episode of The Summer Self-Care Series, Danna Thomas, creator of Happy Teacher Revolution talks all things self-care, setting boundaries, and her own struggle with creating both in her own teaching life. She also shares with us her mission to create a true revolution of happy teachers who can lead happy classrooms and happy lives. She does this to support teachers to get out of burnout.
Danna Thomas is a former Baltimore City Public School teacher and the founder of Happy Teacher Revolution: a Baltimore-born, international movement with the mission to organize and conduct support groups for teachers in the field of mental health and wellness to increase teacher happiness, retention, and professional sustainability. Danna served as the national spokeswoman for the National Alliance on Mental Illness and the Music for Mental Health Campaign. After teaching for seven years, she left the classroom to join the Johns Hopkins Social Innovation Lab, which led to Happy Teacher Revolution winning first place in the Johns Hopkins Social Impact Forum. She currently trains “Revolutionaries” from around the world to initiate Happy Teacher Revolution meetings in their own communities.
