Being a leader often means carrying everyone else’s questions, worries, and deadlines, sometimes at the expense of your own well-being. Over time, it can become hard to tell where the job ends and your life begins. In this session, Dr. Josh Ray draws on his experiences in educational leadership and ideas from his book, Finding Your Balance, to explore what sustainable leadership can look like in real schools. Participants will reflect on common patterns that pull leaders toward burnout and learn practical ways to set boundaries, protect thinking time, and model healthy practices for staff. Attendees will leave with concrete ideas they can begin using right away to support both their own wellness and the success of the people they lead.
