Ep #462: Moving Forward with Grief, Not Around It

Moving forward after tragedy doesn't mean putting our feelings aside and carrying on as though nothing happened. For school leaders, grief, anger, fear, and helplessness are real responses to events that affect the safety and well-being of the communities they serve. Learning to move forward begins with allowing ourselves to feel what we're experiencing.

In this episode, I reflect on the school shooting in Bend, Oregon, and the emotional impact these tragedies have on educators, students, families, and entire school communities. I explore the difference between resilience and hypervigilance, why we need to process our emotions instead of rushing back to normal, and how grief and anger can offer insight into what matters and what needs to change.
