Summary
In this newly formatted episode of The Language of Behavior , Josh and Charle switch things up with a fun and honest “educational hot takes” conversation. From narcissistic tendencies in education to why email may be the devil, they unpack some of the most frustrating dynamics educators face and share practical ways to protect your mental health and stability. Charlie breaks down the difference between narcissistic behavior and a clinical diagnosis, why it is so important not to label kids too early, and how to communicate calmly and clearly with difficult personalities. Josh makes the case for stronger email boundaries, reminding listeners that constant availability is not the same as effective leadership or healthy practice. The conversation also includes lighthearted behind-the-banter moments, a few nostalgic TV references, and updates on the Thrive Summit, the School Behavior Solution Summit, and what is coming next in May. Student Behavior Summit on April 30th.
