A little video to introduce myself and my work 😊

[MrsTcoaching @MrsTcoaching]

If you're struggling to let go of the year and enjoy the holidays, it's understandable.
Have a read of my new blog. It's all about using self-compassion as a way to reframe this complex and overwhelming job.

@Headteacherchat This book really helped me decide what to do. I made a little video summarising the key points a while back. You can watch it here

@ljwattsWales @pdLouiseP Love both of these 👍

@pdLouiseP @Jane_Gillon I love Scandi dramas but would not like to see them dubbed. Original language with subtitles is much better imo.

@Headteacherchat Wellbeing is everyone's responsibility, not just yours. It sounds as though you have the world on your shoulders right now, and that's tough. Open up the dialogue and don't feel as though you need to have all the answers.

[MrsTcoaching @MrsTcoaching]

@debsybear So good to 'lean into those feelings' as you say. It's refreshing to hear that. Hope the melancholy passes through and fun emerges 😊

[MrsTcoaching @MrsTcoaching]

@AlisonKriel Not surprised, sadly. But interesting to see the brass neck of the guy, doing a Panorama interview!

[MrsTcoaching @MrsTcoaching]

@Headteacherchat Sorry you feel like that. It can be a lonely role. Reaching out to local heads can be a good way forwards. I've always found other heads to be very supportive. It helps to know you're not the only one.

[MrsTcoaching @MrsTcoaching]

@Headteacherchat I think the most important thing is the headteachers own mindset. It's so important to take care of your emotions around these things and build up the ability to not take things personally. Seeing interactions as opportunities, not threats, is a reframe I always found useful.

[MrsTcoaching @MrsTcoaching]

@AlisonKriel @TEDxTalks Good luck- such an important topic! 👏

[MrsTcoaching @MrsTcoaching]

@AidanSevers Great question! I'm a middle child and I think that has influenced my life journey massively.

[MrsTcoaching @MrsTcoaching]

@FirstHeadship I set up a system for myself when I was a head. It really improved my effectiveness & work life harmony. I've now shared it with lots of heads & have put it into an online resource so that more people can access it. You might like to take a look https://t.co/e9VNxX92ng
