As we head into a much-deserved break, we’re bringing you a special bonus listen! We pause our usual actionable advice for a moment of deep reflection on why the simple act of gratitude is the single most powerful, yet often overlooked, tool for strengthening your team and restoring your own energy. This episode is a vital conversation about viewing appreciation not just as a kindness, but as a strategic daily practice. Learn the difference between fleeting, generic thanks and specific, memorable acknowledgment, and how these small acts can transform a job into a mission. We discuss tangible steps, like the power of a handwritten note, and why the most critical person to thank is often yourself. As educator leaders, resilience is key—and as Brene Brown reminds us, “Joy collected over time fuels resilience.” Gratitude is how we collect that joy. Take this holiday to recharge and return knowing the tremendous value you bring is deeply appreciated.
