No I don’t, and kids have never gotten it correct 😂

Typically, no, I don't. I have before, but it is rarely worth it and it usually just leads to kids asking me if I have a boyfriend, etc.

My coworkers refer to me as Mrs. when they are talking to their students so I’ve given up at this point 🙃 I think it does bother me but I’m not sure that’s it’s really a big deal.

I find myself writing/typing Mrs. for unmarried female teachers sometimes and I'm like 🤦🏾‍♀️ I guess I just do it out of habit. Typically, when speaking I SAY Miss for every female teacher 😂

I have a direct report who is smart, passionate about her job and can be really innovative. However she carries this enormous weight of responsibility, for needing to do everything, do it right, make sure it's perfect, not trusting colleagues to help. It creates dread and panic and overwhelming workload and a terrible attitude for her and I am speaking with her this week to start to shift her mindset. Any tips in navigating how to let go of this heavy idea of "responsibility"?

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.
