  "textContent": "February can be brutal. You know it, I know it.\n\nThe stretch between January and spring break is the part nobody talks about when they're recruiting you into teaching. You're tired in a way that sleep doesn't fix. You're still showing up — because that's who you are — but you're running on fumes.\n\nI've been in the classroom for 26 years. I'm not writing this from the other side. I'm right there with you.\n\nThree years ago, I started Why Edify because I was tired of feeling like excellence had to cost me everything. I've been sending weekly newsletters since then, and you've stuck around — which I am extremely grateful for.\n\nI've been building a library of courses and resources. Adding to it week by week.\n\nInside The STRONG Teacher's Lounge, you'll find two courses — The STRONG Teacher Course and The STRONG Year — specifically for this moment in the school year. Not the beginning when everything feels possible. Right now. February. When you need a framework, not a pep talk.\n\nIt's $79 for the whole year. One payment.\n\nIf you've been reading these emails thinking \"I need more of this\" — this is more of this.\n\nJoin here →\n\n— Jeremy\n\nP.S. If $79 isn't in the cards right now, no worries. Keep opening Wednesdays. I'm not going anywhere.",
