Listen "Note 02: The Vibe I Allow, The Bar I Set"
Episode Synopsis
In this note, I sit down on a chill weekday, right before the storm of starting my last semester of college and the first day back with my students. I open up about why structure matters to me, how I’ve learned to build expectations, and the ways I hold myself and others accountable without losing compassion.This isn’t about controlling people. Expectations, to me, are about clarity, safety, and love. It’s about being real with myself, my students, my friends, and anyone who crosses paths with me.So if you’ve ever wondered how to balance being empathetic with standing firm, or how to set a standard without being controlling, this note is for you.
