Have you ever felt like you're drowning in the demands of school leadership?

Like you're constantly choosing between being a good leader and having a life outside of school?

You're not alone.

In this week's episode, I sit down with Jeff Linden of the Education Leadership with Principal JL podcast to share my journey from feeling completely overwhelmed as a first-year principal to discovering how to lead with intention while maintaining work-life balance.

As we enter April and the final season of this school year, this is the perfect opportunity to examine our intentions and how we're showing up in our lives.

Many of us feel stretched too thin—not feeling "good enough" in our various roles as educators, parents, partners, or friends. This overwhelming sensation often stems from trying to do too much without clear intention. When we operate on autopilot, moving robotically through our days, we miss the richness life has to offer.

This week, I invite you to raise the bar—not from a place of insufficiency, but from a desire for greater satisfaction and joy.

Do your teachers ever come to you with perceived problems they want your help solving? It's easy to get caught up in trying to solve every issue that comes your way, but what if some of those "problems" aren't really problems at all?

In this episode, I share a powerful coaching conversation I had with a principal who was struggling with a teacher collaboration issue. We uncovered some key insights about how we can sometimes create our own problems by making assumptions and trying to force everyone to fit into the same box. I invite you to consider a different approach to teacher collaboration - one that allows for flexibility, diversity, and acceptance among our staff members. By embracing individual differences and empowering teachers to find creative solutions, we can create a more harmonious and effective school culture.
