#460: Flip the Fall Dip: When the New School Year Loses Momentum

The beginning of a new school year often brings excitement, fresh energy, and momentum. But as September and October roll around, that initial enthusiasm can start to fade, leaving school leaders feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and wondering why everything suddenly feels harder.

In this special preview episode, I share clips from my Flip the Fall Dip 2026 series, exploring the highs and lows of school culture and the emotional energy that shapes our experience as leaders. I discuss why the shift from the excitement of a new school year to the daily grind can feel like something has gone wrong, how we absorb the emotions of the people around us, and why physical, mental, and emotional fatigue can leave us focused on everything that isn't working.
