In this episode of the Common Time Podcast, we’re joined by Elizabeth Herring for a thoughtful conversation about navigating change in music education. 

We dive into what it’s like to transition between schools, how to intentionally rebuild or reshape program culture, and the daily habits that lead to long-term success as a music educator. We also discuss the importance of personal discipline, reflection, and leadership routines that support effective teaching, especially during seasons of change.

Whether you’re changing schools, refreshing your program culture, or simply looking to strengthen your teaching habits, this episode offers practical perspective and encouragement you can apply right away.
