## Resource

Leadership isn’t a marathon you have to crawl through — but too often, we wait until the health scare, the burnout, or the breakdown before we pause. This week on the Everything Early Childhood podcast, I’m sharing Lesson #2 from my upcoming book The Resilient Leader — the brutal truth about why so many leaders wait until it hurts to take care of themselves, and how we can shift that story. Inside this episode: 💛 The psychology of why we push ourselves past breaking point. 💛 My personal story of “waiting too long” before I listened to my own body. 💛 A client’s turning-point moment that changed how she led her service. 💛 Practical anchors to move, eat, sleep, and lead with intention — before the warning signs arrive. 👉 Tune in, reflect, and ask yourself: Am I leading like I want to last?
