On today's Bite Size Episode I share my Spring Break experiences and reflect on the importance of setting up the life that you want to live and try to move towards not regretting choices you make by prioritizing your values and the things you want to be investing your time in.

Today's episode aims to share a couple of thoughts and strategies around self-regulation and co-regulation for teachers and administrators. All behavior is communication and, often, behavior that appears more "challenging" or "unexpected" is trying to communicate some kind of emotion, feeling, or need that has not been met. I share a couple of strategies and a book connection you can use when bringing emotional wellness into your classrooms especially as we get closer to warmer weather and the excitement of Spring and Summer buzzes in our buildings.

With today’s episode I want to take a more reflective approach to talk about the topic of wounds. During my graduate classes the topic of “fear” came up a couple of times in my assignments. One of our instructors recommended I pick up The Wounded Leader: How Real Leadership Emerges in Times of Crisis by Richard Ackerman – It’s an older book (early 2000s) but the themes really resonated with me and so alot of today’s reflection is definitely in response to these themes of wounds and how we can do something called reframing in order to craft meaning from our own stories and pains.

In today's Episode I am joined with Principal Extraordinaire Mike Earnshaw. Mike is the host of the Punk Rock Classrooms Podcast, Author of the The EduCulture Cookbook: Recipes & Dishes to Positively Transform Classroom & School Culture.
In our conversation we dive into his journey from high schooler that had their fair share of struggles, to extraordinarily fun teacher, and how he has made the shift from "fitting in" as an admin to really coming into his own and being the Mike he has always been.
One of the most beautiful things about life is how diverse we all are as human beings and there is no one size fits all to anything. I was really empowered by this conversation and hope that you can all find the encouragement to be the best and most authentic you!

The Legend of Zelda is one of my all time favorite video game series' and I've been thinking about the connection between the games and how we can show up as our best. The video games invite a great sense of discovery, exploration, adventure, and wonderment which, lately, I've been thinking is how life has been. I do want to honor that the last two years have not been all sugar and rainbows, but there has been in an upside in how it has proved to be a way to re-examine our own lives and the systems we live in.
In this episode I want to invite you to think of a world where you don't live by a map, as a cog in the machine, but as an adventurer with a compass. There are infinite pathways ahead of us and it is up to us to have the courage to live by our compass and let it guide the path forward.

Welcome to the 3rd episode of the Podcast! I want to start off again by saying thank you to folks who have been encouraging me to continue this path and have celebrated that this is something that I am doing.
I wrapped up Pippa Grange’s Fear Less: How to Win at Life Without Losing Yourself this week and wanted to do an episode on fear and how it functions in my own life, or I should say has traditionally functioned. Fear can take the form of feeling like you are not good enough, it can be actual fear, it can be the fear of not fitting in somewhere. I learned it is also a function of society and of organizations we might belong to.
For me, motorcycling is one of my favorite things to do in the summer and it is also one of the most incredibly challenging things I have ever done in my life. It’s something that I’ve been doing since 2019 and has caused me to really learn to walk with fear, listen to it, but also learn to disrupt it when it gets overwhelming.
I hope that you can find some connection in today’s episode. Let’s get started!

Welcome to the 2nd episode of the Podcast! I want to start off by sharing gratitude to folks that have reached out to me in messages, E-Mails, or in person to congratulate me on the show and especially to some close friends that have provided some feedback to help make this episode even better!
I have no doubt in my mind that everyone is doing the absolute best that they can but, as Maya Angelou says, “when we know better, we do better.” There is such a cost to not learning this skill of prioritization and ultimately we can unlock more potential by even just selecting to implement one of these tips that you will hear today. As always, it’s about finding what resonates with you and then figuring out how it applies into your individual life!
I am really excited to share this with you all so now… onto today’s episode!

Hello and welcome to the launch of the podcast. I’ve been working on creating a podcast since last year and it took a while to choose the courageous path and click “upload” on this episode, because I know that means I am definitely doing this every week. I know that I can get stuck in talking about a concept for a while, and sometimes those ideas don’t happen. They just sound really exciting! This is a concept I really wanted to commit to so I’ve been waiting to finish my master’s program in educational leadership so I would have a more open schedule to make this happen, especially at the start when it’s going to require more time.
Throughout this season I will be sharing insights, research, and finding guests to share ideas to hopefully give you an avenue to reflect on your experiences. While I will talk about educational experiences and there are certainly aspects that can apply to educators, I am aiming this audience at people who might feel they want to try new things out in their life to live more closely to the life they want. Maybe you are like me and struggle with focus and have struggled in the past with emotional regulation, or even emotional intelligence. Maybe you feel like there’s too much to do and don’t know how to get started. Maybe you feel self-critical every time you feel something that is unpleasant.

Hello and welcome to this teaser episode of The Learning Pack Podcast. Lately I’ve been realizing that a lot of the work I have been doing on Social-Emotional Learning, Self-Care, and Self-Compassion is fantastic but I’ve only been keeping it for myself. While many people are benefiting from some of my growth, I think it is powerful to share ideas.
Today I want to share with you 5 books that have left a significant impact on my personal growth:
Indistractable by Nir Eyal
Think Like a Monk by Jay Shetty
Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin
The Gift by Dr. Edith Eger
Feel Great, Lose Weight by Dr. Rangan Chatterjee
Be well,
Kris
