Power Surge Protecting Your Peace During Holiday Chaos #210
“Be still and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10
Episode:
The holiday season hits different in schools — concerts, programs, discipline spikes, evaluations, data cycles, parent emails, and schedule changes. It’s a lot.
But even when the pace is fast, your spirit doesn’t have to be. You can choose stillness even inside a storm. Protecting your peace isn’t selfish — it’s stewardship.
Peace is leadership currency. When you’re calm, it allows everyone else to settle. When you’re overwhelmed, the building feels it instantly.
Power Points:
- Peace is a leadership skill, not a luxury.
- Slowing your spirit helps you respond, not react.
- Chaos outside doesn’t have to become chaos inside.
- Modeling calm reduces building-wide anxiety.
Power Quote:
✨ I will protect my peace so I can lead from a grounded, God-centered place.
