SELLEST OSAST
What happens when we stop gripping so tightly to control, perfection, old expectations, and the belief that leaders should have every answer? Jerri and Jamie sit down with educator, leader, and author Glenn Robbins to explore the central idea behind his new book, Unclench Your Fist. Drawing on stories from history and his own leadership journey, Glenn shares practical lessons about trust, intention, and knowing when to let go.
The conversation invites leaders, educators, and anyone who supports others to consider a deceptively simple question: What are you holding onto that may be holding you back? Sometimes leadership doesn’t call for a tighter grip. It asks us to open our hands, make room for others, and release some of the pressure we put on ourselves.
