Your Morning Boost - The Leader's Holiday Playbook: Intellectually Disconnect, Recharge, and Celebrate Your Wins

You've navigated the intensity of the fall semester, and you deserve every moment of rest that is coming your way. This final episode of the season is dedicated entirely to you, the school leader, focusing on essential strategies for how to intellectually disconnect, recharge, and celebrate your incredible accomplishments. Resilience is a resource that must be renewed, and you cannot pour from an empty cup.We provide a crucial three-step self-care strategy for the holiday break:

Schedule a Transition Zone: Do not drive straight home and dive into holiday planning. Immediately after school closes, take 30 minutes to sit quietly and deliberately switch off. Use this time to write down three things you truly finished this week—not just three things you did—and leave that list at the school. This physical and mental separation is critical for preventing burnout creep.
Delegate and Enforce a Rigid Disconnection Boundary: Trust your designated emergency contacts and security team to handle true emergencies. Turn off notifications on your personal devices. Remember, the true mark of a strong leader is not being irresponsible, but building a team that can function independently while you are away.
Celebrate Your Wins: Go beyond the school’s accomplishments and recognize your personal impact. The hard conversation you handled, the successful Title IX training you implemented, the teacher you mentored back to confidence—document and reflect on these foundational successes. This is essential leadership maintenance that fuels your return in January.

Exciting Announcement:Before we sign off, we have fantastic news! After the holiday break, Your Morning Boost will be evolving from a daily podcast to a weekly podcast. These slightly longer episodes will dive deeper into complex topics like administrative law and strategic finance, and will feature more expert guests. We are thrilled to be joining a new network and will be back with this new, upgraded weekly schedule starting on January 5th.Give yourself permission to truly rest, be present with your loved ones, and return in January feeling physically and mentally abundant.Find resources and support for educational leadership at awbeducation.org and learn about executive search services at grundmeyerleadersearch.com.Tune in here: https://push.fm/fl/yourmorningboost
