Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we explore what it truly means to embrace discomfort, improve through authenticity, and model a growth mindset—especially when success is already in sight. You’ll hear the powerful story of Nicki Slaugh and the Quest Academy team, who, despite their high-performing PCBL practices, leaned into coaching to push even further. Together, they redefined what’s possible through targeted support, high-agency strategies, and a “How Can We?” mentality. We will unpack the leadership behaviors, teacher mindsets, and practical actions that help schools move beyond perceived limits. Whether you’re leading a classroom or a district, this conversation will challenge you to see growth not as an obligation—but as a calling.
