In this episode, I'm talking about the double isolation that so many principals silently carry: First, the weight of being the only one in their building who can't show weakness, who's expected to solve everything, and who rarely gets support in return. And second, the loneliness of being a Builder in a district full of status-quo thinking where no one else seems to believe that 100% student success is even possible. If you've ever felt like you're the only one who wants more for your school, this episode is for you. I'll share what's really behind that isolation, why it's not your fault, and what can happen when you stop trying to do this work on your own.
