About this episode

Josh and Charle discuss strategies for building capacity under pressure and managing stress during high-demand seasons.

What happens when the pressure starts building and your capacity starts shrinking? In this week's episode of The Language of Behavior , Josh and Charle dig into what it really means to build capacity under pressure. As the school year ramps up and work-life demands start swinging hard, they explore why balance is a myth, why reactivity drains us, and how staying grounded in the present moment can help us protect our energy, relationships, and well-being. The conversation focuses on practical strategies for navigating high-pressure seasons, including noticing your stress signals, naming what you feel, creating clear start and stop times, and building habits before chaos hits. Josh and Charle also discuss how capacity affects not just the individual, but everyone around them, making this a timely conversation for educators, leaders, and anyone feeling the weight of a full season. -- FREE The Language of Behavior Book Study Kit: https://thrivingeducator.myflodesk.com/lobbookstudy Bulk Book Discount: https://www.connectedd.org/bulk-orders Do you have any questions for the podcast?
