In our latest episode of the 2Principals Podcast, we dive into the importance of summer break for school leaders. As principals, we recognize the need to unwind and recharge after a whirlwind school year. We discuss our personal plans for the summer, ranging from vacations to the North Shore and Sedona to local adventures like bike rides and hikes.

We emphasize the significance of disconnecting from work and finding creative ways to rejuvenate. Photography, gardening, and even bird watching are some of the activities we're looking forward to. We also touch on the importance of social connections, whether it's through backyard barbecues or spending time with family near water.

The conversation shifts to the broader concept of self-care and how it's crucial for school leaders to prioritize their well-being. We discuss the ripple effect of showing up refreshed and energized, and how it positively impacts our staff and students. We also highlight the importance of modeling self-care for our teams.

As we wrap up, we offer advice to our listeners on making the most of their summer break. We encourage trying new activities, stepping out of comfort zones, and not feeling guilty about taking time for oneself. We remind fellow educators that this break is a gift and embracing it wholeheartedly will lead to a more positive and energized return to school in the fall.

Overall, this episode serves as a reminder for school leaders to prioritize their own recharging during the summer months, setting the stage for a successful and vibrant new school year.
