Do you struggle with wanting to control situations as a principal? Is it hard for you to release control? In this episode we are exploring how principals can use Mel Robbins' Let Them Theory to release control and focus on what is in our direct circle of influence. Join us as we dive into why we often feel an anxiety-based need to take charge, the costs of excessive control on school culture, and practical strategies to shift your leadership approach.

We'll explore real-world examples of the Let Them Theory in action—from curriculum implementation to parent interactions—and provide a framework for determining what truly falls within your sphere of influence. Through engaging discussions and actionable tips, you'll learn how to acknowledge what others will do ("Let them") while focusing on your empowered response ("Let me").
