Ep #360: Pleasure Is Not Irresponsible

As an educator and school leader, it’s easy to get caught up in the endless demands of the job - pleasing your staff, students, parents, and district, putting out fires, and chasing external metrics of success. We think experiencing pleasure and delight in our work is irresponsible, but this week, I challenge the deeply ingrained belief that feeling good is at odds with being a committed, effective school leader.   Hear my own journey of breaking free from the "pleasure is irresponsible" mindset, and what happens when you do the same. Learn how the unspoken rules you’re currently believing may be holding you back from truly thriving as a leader, and how intentionally flipping the script will create positive change for your entire school community.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://angelakellycoaching.com/360
