Season 3, Episode #5: “A Piece of Mind”

In this episode, Joe and Al dive into the daily pressures and mental load that come with being a school leader. From juggling schedules and making tough calls to carrying the unseen weight of staff, students, and families — principals rarely get true peace of mind. But what if we reframed it as a piece of mind — intentionally carving out space for reflection, clarity, and focus?

Join us as we explore practical strategies to manage stress, protect your mental bandwidth, and create rhythms that allow you to lead with purpose. Expect honest conversation, real-world examples, and tools you can take back to your building right away.

Whether you’re looking for encouragement, balance, or just a reminder that you’re not alone in the work — this episode offers a piece of mind for every leader.
