Description

Feeling the drain? Your leadership capacity is directly tied to your personal sustainability. This episode is a vital conversation focused on the health and wellness of school leaders. The challenge isn't finding time for a retreat—it's securing five minutes of restorative space daily within the hurricane of duties. We share small, non-negotiable strategies to help you protect your energy and ensure you are leading from a place of strength.


Key Takeaways:




  • Mindful Transition: Schedule a 5-minute pause between home and campus to shift your mindset.




  • Physical Boundary: Block off 30 minutes for a lunch/walk appointment you cannot miss.




  • Communication Cutoffs: Establish clear off-hours expectations to prevent perpetual burnout.




  • External Passion: Cultivate a non-school related hobby for cognitive cross-training and renewal.




Protecting your personal wellness is the key to sustainable, long-term impact. Commit to filling your own cup today!
