  • Ep #381: The Need to Know
    Apr 15 2025

    Do you ever feel that pang of anxiety when you realize you've missed an important meeting or weren't included in a crucial conversation?

    If you’re navigating this tension between wanting to know everything happening in your school and district versus recognizing what information you actually need to fulfill your leadership responsibilities, this episode is for you.

    This week, we'll explore the fascinating psychology behind our desire to "be in the know" and how this need often stems from deeper places than we realize.

  • Ep #379: Raise the Bar
    Apr 1 2025

    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.
