I'm Amber Harper!
I’m a kindergarten teacher, teacher burnout coach, and travel-obsessed adventurer from Northeast Indiana.
When I realized I was deep in teacher burnout, I refused to look at it as a sentence. Instead, I chose to let it be an opportunity and took steps in my career to create the change I needed to be happy and fulfilled. Since then, I’ve written a book, created a course, and built a community of teachers who are serious about overcoming burnout and discovering a new and fresh passion for teaching.
