Monsieur Steve

☀️THIS IS 41! / C’EST 41!☀️ First of all, today is my bday 🥳 and I know, none of you can believe I’m 41. I can’t either. 😜 BUT what is age? Age means nothing, it’s what you do with your time here that counts. For me, it’s been an incredible journey of self-discovery and growth. The person I am today is the result of many mistakes, life lessons, ups, downs, and everything in between! There have been some very dark lows this past year, but I wouldn’t change a thing because it all led me to this point and I’m exactly where I need to be. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 And lastly, I cannot thank all of you enough for the love and support on here. We’re truly an online community that aims to lift each other up; a community built around love! 💕 Alors un très grand merci à vous tous!!! Avec amour, 💕 Monsieur Steve 😺 . . . . . . . . #happybdaytome #itsmybday #thisis41 #teacherootd #teacherstyle #teacherlook #teacherlife #teachershare #zipolite #zipoliteoaxaca #gayméxico #gaytoronto #torontogay #lifelessonslearned #personalgrowthjourney

⚖️ BALANCE ⚖️ One of the things I hope to accomplish while away is to come back home & maintain a better work / life balance. ☯️ Is this something you also struggle with? Have you mastered it? Getting close?! If so, what are some tips cause I’m sure I’m not the only one who could use some help here! 😸😸😸 Also, I woke up at 6am & did sunrise yoga. Yup. 6am. On vacation. 😜 . . . . . . . #worklifebalancegoals #teachergoals #yogabalance #mindfulnesspractice #teacherstruggles #zipolite #zipoliteoaxaca #instamexico #teacherproblems #teachertechtip #teachershare

If you know me, you know I’m all about “Girl Power!”✌🏼But International Women’s Day is so much more than that! It’s a day to talk about some of the incredible accomplishments of women who stood up to the patriarchy, who stood up for what’s right, who took incredible risks to achieve their goals! 💪🏻 If you’re looking for an amazing read aloud, “Elle A Persisté / She Persisted” by Chelsea Clinton is the perfect read to inspire your students! ANDDD she has 4 in this series, telling stories of incredible females who PERSISTED despite all odds! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 Today is also a day to celebrate women past, (present & future), while also recognizing that the path to true equality is still a work in progress. And never forget, you don’t need one day to talk about women’s rights and equality…you can and should be integrating it all year. Here’s to all the amazing women in my life, like my mom who was and will always be my hero. She sacrificed everything for me and to this day is my rock! 🪨 And here’s to my insta fam, consisting of some of the most inspiring, innovative, creative, strong, caring, and all around amazing women! @the.crafty.teacher @mycalltoteach @frenchfrenzytpt @the.spedzone @one.bright.crayon @lovelivelaughteach You all inspire me THE MOST! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 And now I’m looking right at you! If you’re a woman reading this, I see you, I hear you, I respect you, and I value you! 💕 . . . . . . . . #internationalwomensday #womensday2023 #girlpower💪 #instafamilylove #mymomismyhero #frenchteacher #iteachfrench #frenchbookstagram #frenchimmersion #frenchresources #monsieursteve #genderequality #whoruntheworldgirls
