Welcome to the Better Leaders Better Schools podcast.  This is a weekly show for ruckus makers -- What is a ruckus maker?  A leader who has found freedom from the status quo. A leader looking to escape the old routine. A leader who never, ever gives up.

Emotions are something we carry around with us 24/7, yet we only let them out for a few hours at home.

Why?

Why do we limit our emotions to such a small part of our day when they can have such a big impact on our life?

Christie Mann, author, leadership coach, and spiritual psychologist explores these questions through her own story as a 13-year old with a father in jail and mistaken belief that suppressing emotions was the best way forward.

We hope you enjoy the podcast. All the highlights, resources, and next steps can be found below. Listen to the full episode here and learn more at betterleadersbetterschools.com

“There is...much more demand for people to bring their full self to work.”

“I like to think about how much energy we put into suppressing our emotions.”

Tip of the Week

Don’t change anything as a first year principal: As a first year principal you need to take the time to develop relationships.  Know your people and observe what is what and how everything meshes together. Change is difficult and is much easier when trust has been built with your employees.  Be an active listener and focus on building strong relationships with your staff prior to making any changes.
