There were so many days I felt completely alone. I didn’t even know how to ask for help—because I didn’t know what kind of help I needed. I just knew I couldn’t keep doing everything by myself.
Maybe you're in that place too.
In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the loneliest parts of leading a microschool—and how I found my way out. Not with a perfect plan. Not with a huge team.
I’ll share what happened when I lost our building, scrambled through commercial properties, and had to lean harder than ever on the community I didn’t even realize I’d already built.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, isolated, or unsure how to let others in—this is the episode you’ve been needing.
Because you don’t have to pretend to have it all together.
And when you do?
Need support mapping it all out?
You don’t have to shout to be seen.
