This week, I have another one of my favorite clients on the show. Jami is so smart, on top of her game, and the work we’ve done together is truly mind-blowing. Jami is going into her third year as a school leader, and she has so much to share on today’s show.

If you believe you already have the systems in place, you know yourself, and you know your school, but you still feel stuck as to how to move your school forward, Jami has something incredibly valuable to offer you today as she walks us through how she’s worked on moving her mindset from good to great, helping a new school come to life, and doing so while balancing her time with five children at home!

I’ve been bringing you some amazing guests from the coaching community to give you the expertise required for handling anything that comes your way in your day-to-day as a school leader, and as a human being.

I know this is the case for many people in high-pressure situations, so weight loss coach Paige Bowman is here to talk about all of it, and how the solution lies in creating awareness and connection with your body.

This week, I have my dear friend, colleague, and financial coach Nicole Stork-Hestad on the show because I want all of you listening to gain comfort when it comes to money. I’ve been coaching a lot over the last few months on the fear many school leaders experience around their professional budgets, and especially if you’re a new leader, you need to get comfortable with all the layers of your budgets.

Nicole Stork-Hestad is a money coach who helps her clients create comfortable, safe, and meaningful relationships around money. She’s here to discuss how getting comfortable with your professional budgeting is some of the most important work you can do, and how doing so transfers over to your personal finances as well.

This is the time of year when professional development starts coming up more and more. Teachers are rolling their eyes when they think about participating in PD because they typically experience the same thing year after year. So, in this episode, we’re discussing how you can approach PD in a way that gets your teachers hyped.

It’s common among teachers to think that professional development training is something they have to endure as part of returning for a new school year. But the truth is, it doesn’t have to be this way. Right now, they have a set of thoughts about PD, as does your district, and I’m sure you have some of your own thoughts about all of it. So, it’s time to try something new.

Today’s episode is very special because we’re honoring and celebrating the end of the year. I’m joined by a few of my clients this week, and they’re here to celebrate everything they’ve accomplished over the past school year, acknowledging their successes big and small, and reflecting on how they got there.
