Barb addresses the common challenge of email addiction among principals, highlighting the negative impact of constant email checking on wellbeing and productivity. She shares practical steps to detox from email, including removing email from your phone, setting clear expectations with staff, gradually reducing after-hour email checks, establishing scheduled email blocks during school hours, and prioritizing alternative communication methods. Tune in to regain control of your time and model healthy work-life boundaries for your school community.
