In this episode, I am delighted to welcome Ceanlia Vermeulen, who shares her challenging experience of supporting a demanding parent during the unprecedented difficulties of COVID-19.

Ceanlia reveals the delicate balance she maintained between meeting this parent's needs while also caring for their child, supporting her teachers and addressing the concerns of other families during a time of universal uncertainty. She candidly discusses the emotional toll this experience took...from feelings of frustration and inadequacy to the very real threat of burnout and how these challenges impacted her professional responsibilities and personal wellbeing. This honest reflection highlights the often unseen emotional labour that educational leaders face, especially during crisis situations.

Join us for an insightful conversation as Ceanlia shares the practical strategies that ultimately helped her overcome these obstacles. Most importantly, she reveals how this challenging experience reinforced her understanding that true leadership in education isn't just about problem-solving, but about approaching difficult situations with genuine empathy and compassionate communication.
