This morning, I’m recording live from my car! Literally on the way to school. I had a plan for today’s episode, but I decided to pivot. Lately, I’ve been thinking about what I call political fret and worry; how the government shutdown, activism, and civic anxiety are showing up in our classrooms and communities.
Students are asking deeper questions, colleagues are rethinking their work, and I’m reflecting on how all of this shapes us as educators and leaders. My takeaway? Education is liberation. When we stay informed, engaged, and grounded, we can turn worry into purpose and action.
I hope today’s reflection helps you think about where you stand and how you’ll move on the way to school.
