Seven episodes.
Seven conversations about purpose, learning, leadership and the quiet ripple effects teachers create every day.
But this episode is different.
Behind every classroom door… behind every lesson… behind every leader trying to hold it all together… there are moments where the plates start to wobble.
In the Season One Finale of Grow Your Flow & Glow, Kurt pulls back the curtain and reflects on the reality of teaching, leadership and life when the pace of the profession begins to collide with the limits of our energy.
From the philosophy of Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi’s Flow, to the deeply human challenge of staying present, purposeful and well in a demanding profession, this episode explores a powerful question:
How do we keep our flow when the current gets rough?
Expect honest reflections, powerful stories from the classroom, and a reminder that the work we do as educators sends ripples far beyond the walls of our schools.
This isn’t just the end of a podcast season.
It’s the beginning of the next chapter.
