Description

In this episode, Steven and Mitch sit down with a true Webster Thomas blue blood: Dr. Chris Callahan, a student ('04 OG) and servant of the Thomas community for over a decade

Chris’s journey isn’t just a career path; it’s a masterclass in growth and development. We trace his steps from D1 football fields and history lectures to the front lines of Special Education as a TA and teacher, eventually leading him to the Principal’s office and a Doctorate in Education.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The Webster Roots: The Thomas experiences that molded him and shaped his future.
• The Educational Ladder: The transition from Special Ed TA to Building Principal.
• Mindset & Leadership: Navigating the space between stimulus and response.
• The Human Side: Balancing a high-level career with family and a sense of humor.

It’s not all heavy lifting, though—expect plenty of laughs as we swap stories about the humor and fulfillment found in the daily grind, the importance of family, and the joy of being a DeWitt Road Panda Bear.

Grab a coffee (black), get a workout in, and let’s grind our way towards some clarity.
