In a world focused on efficiency and outcomes, it's easy to slip into transactional relationships—at home, in classrooms, or in our communities. But when we lead with connection instead of control, we create spaces where trust, empathy, and belonging can grow.In this week's podcast, let's explore the difference between transactional and relational mindsets, and why it matters for parents, teachers, and leaders who want to build meaningful, lasting relationships.✨ Let’s shift from keeping score to truly showing up for each other.Want the quiz: are you relational or transactional?
