If leadership feels like you’re carrying the whole school alone, the problem might not be your work ethic. It might be the model you’re using. We get real about how easy it is for principals and school leaders to slip into command and control leadership and why that approach often creates compliance, not commitment.
I’m reflecting on key ideas from Trust and Inspire by Stephen M. R. Covey and what they mean for educational leadership, school culture, and teacher motivation. We talk through the big shift from managing people to leading people, why trust consistently gets better work than control, and how a leader’s habits can either grow staff capacity or quietly shrink it. You’ll hear practical ways to stop micromanaging instruction and start building instructional leaders across the building, plus the mindset reframe that matters most: leadership starts in the mirror.
We also dig into the real fears that hold leaders back like losing control, getting burned, or watching something fail and the real costs of staying stuck: burnout, disengaged staff, and a school that can’t run without you. If you want delegation that actually works, accountability that feels shared, and a staff that goes above and beyond because they believe in the work, this conversation will help you take the next step. Subscribe, share this with a leader who needs it, and leave a review so more educators can find the show.

00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:27.439
Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you work as a leader, you're still carrying too much?
00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:35.439
Too many decisions, too many responsibilities, too many problems that feel like they all come back at you?
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:37.439
Here's the question.
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:42.959
What if the issue isn't your effort, but your leadership approach?
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:52.719
Today I want to talk to you about a concept that challenged me as a leader and honestly caused me to reflect deeply on how I show up every day.
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:56.719
This concept is trust and aspire leadership.
00:01:56.719 --> 00:01:58.719
And here's the reality.
00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:08.000
If we want schools where students thrive, we must first create environments where adults can be trusted and inspired.
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:10.079
But here's the catch.
00:02:10.079 --> 00:02:14.799
It doesn't start with them, it starts with us.
00:02:14.799 --> 00:02:17.519
Now let's get to the episode.
00:02:17.519 --> 00:02:32.079
Welcome back, everybody, to another exciting episode of the Educational Leadership Podcast.
00:02:32.079 --> 00:02:34.000
I am really excited to be back.
00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:36.560
I kind of took a hiatus a little bit.
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:40.240
Man, it's been crazy the last month or so.
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:48.159
For me, I've been hiring people, people have been, you know, moving on to other opportunities, and I'm trying to shift people around.
00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:49.680
So it's been kind of crazy.
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:54.719
So my focus has really been on the job, hasn't really been on the podcast.
00:02:54.719 --> 00:03:04.319
Um, I know I've had a couple of weeks where I haven't had episodes come out, but you know, it's because I have to maintain my building and the things I gotta do.
00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:13.199
I love doing a podcast, but sometimes I have to set that podcast aside so I can do the job that I that I've been called to do as well.
00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:24.079
But I'm excited today because I'm gonna talk to you guys about something that I think is really, really important because I just finished a book.
00:03:24.079 --> 00:03:28.639
It took me a little while called Trust and Aspire by Stephen M.
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:28.959
R.
00:03:28.959 --> 00:03:29.919
Covey.
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:38.560
This book was recommended to me by one of my friends and former, not former, but guest of the show, Lindsey Allen.
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:40.159
You guys might remember him.
00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:46.400
He was the Georgia Principal of the Year, and so he said, Hey, here's a book for you to read.
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:50.719
And so I read it, and honestly, I really enjoyed the book.
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:56.159
It was one of those books that got me to sit back and kind of reflect on my own leadership.
00:03:56.159 --> 00:04:03.919
And so I wanted to take the time to talk to you guys about what I've learned in that book.
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:08.719
And honestly, this isn't a book that you just read it and move on.
00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:09.919
It's not that kind of a book.
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:17.680
It's one of those books that makes you pause, reflect, and really evaluate your leadership.
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:24.240
And so that was something I kept thinking about how does this apply to me as a leader, as a principal?
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:28.799
How can I get better at building trust and inspiring my staff?
00:04:28.799 --> 00:04:33.360
Because I think that's really some secret sauce that we gotta have.
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:42.399
Because I'm telling you, like it or not, a lot of administrators out there are stuck in what we would call command and control leadership.
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:49.199
So as I'm reading this book, I keep asking myself, where am I leading with trust?
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:55.759
Where am I still holding on to this control, you know, that I'm having a hard time of giving up, right?
00:04:55.759 --> 00:05:05.919
Where are those in my leadership or in my day-to-day grind that I'm like trying to hang on to this and that control-wise and not building that trust capacity?
00:05:05.919 --> 00:05:09.600
Also, how am I truly inspiring myself?
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:12.879
Am I really inspiring my staff or am I just managing them?
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:21.279
These are thoughts that just come to me, like things that just come to me as I'm reading this, because I don't want to be your average principal.
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:26.480
I don't want to be a principal that just gets bought, right?
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:31.759
I want to be somebody that trusts their staff, inspire them to do great things.
00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:50.319
Because I think that's what we're missing in education is leaders that trust and inspire their staff, not just manage them, but help them become the best they can be for themselves, but then they can be the best for our students, and then I will elevate our school overall.
00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:56.000
So this is something I believe every educational leader needs to hear.
00:05:56.000 --> 00:06:11.439
In today's episode, it's not just about the book, it's about what I learned from it and how it challenged me and how I believe it could benefit principals, assistant principals, school leaders, superintendents, and doing this work every day.
00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:18.879
Because at the end of the day, leadership isn't about what we know, it's about how we show up.
00:06:18.879 --> 00:06:20.879
It's how we lead.
00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:23.120
How do we trust people, how to inspire.
00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:26.159
I think that's really important for us to understand.
00:06:26.159 --> 00:06:28.079
But let's be honest.
00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:39.920
A lot of school leaders, if you admit it or not, and you might be one that won't admit it, but we are built on what they call a command and control model.
00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:42.800
It's something that we learn innately.
00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:46.399
Like it's something that's ingrained in us from the time we were growing up.
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:51.040
We're learning command and control model in the school systems that we work in.
00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:58.480
But we need to make a shift and get out of the command and control model and get into the trust and inspire model.
00:06:58.480 --> 00:07:02.240
In the command and control model, this is what you do.
00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:09.839
We set expectations, we monitor closely, we hold people accountable, and we make the most of the decisions.
00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:13.199
Like, as a principal, I would make most of the decisions, right?
00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:15.360
That works on the surface.
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:19.759
Like, yeah, it can work, but is it the best practice, right?
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:23.519
Is it the best thing we can do for our schools?
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:26.639
So here's something I want you to know about leadership.
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:30.560
Command and control drives compliance.
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:36.879
But trust and aspire leadership builds commitment.
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:38.399
Now think about that.
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:44.399
Command and control drives compliance, or trust and aspire builds commitment.
00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:48.639
Now, this is a shift you have to make.
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:53.519
Because compliance says, do this because I say so.
00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:58.399
But commitment says, I believe in this and I'm all in.
00:07:58.399 --> 00:08:07.599
So when you get people to believe in something that's bigger than themselves and they become all in, that's going to be better than compliance.
00:08:07.599 --> 00:08:10.240
Because now you have committed people to the cause.
00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:13.759
You're not just telling them they have to do something because they said so, right?
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:15.439
How many of you guys have parents out there?
00:08:15.439 --> 00:08:19.120
I've had parents that told me, my mom and dad, like, well, do that because I say so.
00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:21.279
And sometimes I catch myself doing that to my own kids.
00:08:21.279 --> 00:08:22.560
Do this because I say so.
00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:26.319
I am not leading with trust and inspire leadership in that way.
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:31.279
Now, there's times where we have to, like for me, I think about emergencies, right?
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:39.519
There's times I have to go into that mode, but for the most part, I want to trust and inspire my staff members.
00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:45.120
Because if I do that, then they're gonna trust and inspire their students, and you guys see where that's going, right?
00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:47.519
So this is what I've learned as a principal.
00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:55.920
Compliance might get short-term results, but commitment builds long-term culture.
00:08:55.920 --> 00:09:00.720
So if you want to command and control, you're gonna get some results, but they're gonna be short-term.
00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:11.279
But if you want the long-term stuff and you want committed long-term culture driving leadership, that is trust and inspire.
00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:12.799
That's the shift we have to make.
00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:20.240
In this book, he lays out instead of controlling everything, you release it, right?
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:25.120
You don't control everything, you let other people take opportunities to lead.
00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:30.879
You go from motivating people to inspiring people, right?
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:36.720
In control environments, you're motivating them, but in trust and aspire, you are inspiring them.
00:09:36.720 --> 00:09:46.960
You go from managing people and the con the control the control aspect to leading people in the trust and aspire.
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:54.799
And so those are things you gotta think about when you're command and control versus trust and aspire.
00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:58.160
Now, this one hit me hard.
00:09:58.160 --> 00:10:02.960
Don't just manage people, lead people.
00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:08.400
And so there's a quote in the book as well that says, manage things but lead people.
00:10:08.400 --> 00:10:14.160
Where there's things that we manage, there's systems that we manage as principals, but we lead people.
00:10:14.160 --> 00:10:15.200
Don't manage them.
00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:20.319
Because that's the the control aspect that's really hard for us to give up sometimes.
00:10:20.319 --> 00:10:24.079
So as principals, we can fall into some traps.
00:10:24.079 --> 00:10:28.640
Managing schedules, managing discipline, managing systems.
00:10:28.640 --> 00:10:36.640
You know, those are things you might have to do, but leadership is not about managing just the task, right?
00:10:36.640 --> 00:10:42.400
It's about building belief, it's about growing people, that growth mindset, right?
00:10:42.400 --> 00:10:46.480
Everybody can grow, everybody can get better, and creating purpose.
00:10:46.480 --> 00:11:06.559
Because when you trust and inspire your people, you're gonna build those things, and then that's really gonna help your school build a culture of the things you want when it comes to growing the trust and inspiration that you have for your people.
00:11:06.559 --> 00:11:17.839
Now, one of the biggest mindset shifts is you don't get your best from people by controlling them, you get your best by trusting them.
00:11:17.839 --> 00:11:20.079
Now, let me repeat that.
00:11:20.079 --> 00:11:27.599
You don't get your best from people by controlling them, you get your best by trusting them.
00:11:27.599 --> 00:11:33.440
You're gonna get better results because you trust the people that you're leading.
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:35.599
You're not trying to control them.
00:11:35.599 --> 00:11:39.759
When you control them, there's gonna be some resentment coming back at you.
00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:41.359
So you've got to be really careful.
00:11:41.359 --> 00:11:50.079
So, what I'm saying is get out of that command and control and start thinking about how I can lead with trust and inspiration.
00:11:50.079 --> 00:11:57.839
And so, this is a book I would recommend you guys to get because it comes full of examples and things you can really think about and dig into.
00:11:57.839 --> 00:12:02.000
So, this episode's really gonna hit some of those things as we go through.
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:25.200
Now, this is something that hit me the hardest when I was reading this book, because you talk about trust and inspire, I'm gonna do all these things, but the first thing you have to do, and I've seen Principal Cafele, who's actually gonna be coming on the show soon, but he talks about looking in the mirror, right?
00:12:25.200 --> 00:12:27.200
Get out your mirror, look at yourself.
00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:28.640
Because guess what?
00:12:28.640 --> 00:12:31.839
Leadership starts with you.
00:12:31.839 --> 00:12:35.680
That's what stood out the most with me in this book.
00:12:35.680 --> 00:12:44.319
Because if you want change to happen in your school, you're gonna have to be the one to help create that change.
00:12:44.319 --> 00:12:53.839
Because if you start trusting and inspiring people, other people will see that and they'll start leading with trust and inspire leadership.
00:12:53.839 --> 00:12:54.720
But guess what?
00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:58.799
It comes down to you as that principal, as that assistant principal.
00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:00.879
You don't have you could be a teacher.
00:13:00.879 --> 00:13:08.079
You don't have to be in a leadership position, but you start leading with trust and inspire leadership, it's gonna spread.
00:13:08.079 --> 00:13:10.640
People are gonna want to be a part of it.
00:13:10.640 --> 00:13:17.519
It's not you changing your staff or changing systems, it's you starting with yourself.
00:13:17.519 --> 00:13:19.519
You be the change first.
00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:25.839
I think that's the thing that hits me the most, and what's something I want to share is you have to be the change.
00:13:25.839 --> 00:13:29.279
It starts with you, and that's uncomfortable for some people.
00:13:29.279 --> 00:13:31.359
That's uncomfortable for me too.
00:13:31.359 --> 00:13:32.400
But guess what?
00:13:32.400 --> 00:13:41.839
If I'm going to be the best version of myself and I want my staff to be the best version of themselves, I have to be the one to lead that.
00:13:41.839 --> 00:13:50.160
I have to be the one to lead with trust and aspire leadership so they can lead with trust and aspire leadership.
00:13:50.160 --> 00:13:53.279
And that is something that we have to do.
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:55.920
Like, that's just that's the part of it, right?
00:13:55.920 --> 00:14:01.119
So because of this, you have to start with yourself.
00:14:01.119 --> 00:14:02.960
There's things you have to ask yourself.
00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:05.119
Do I really trust my people?
00:14:05.119 --> 00:14:12.400
Do you really say you trust them and you're giving them things, or are you like keeping it at arm's length and then yanking it back, right?
00:14:12.400 --> 00:14:17.920
You know, do you say I trust you, but then nah I'm gonna still control things?
00:14:17.920 --> 00:14:20.319
Doesn't work that way, can't do it.
00:14:20.319 --> 00:14:25.599
Do I create space for others to lead, or do I step in too quickly?
00:14:25.599 --> 00:14:29.440
Do I allow people to take on things and lead and run with it?
00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:34.160
Or do I have to be in control, I have to step in when it's not going the way I want it?
00:14:34.160 --> 00:14:36.559
Sometimes you gotta let people fail, guys.
00:14:36.559 --> 00:14:38.559
That's the only way they're gonna learn.
00:14:38.559 --> 00:14:46.879
You gotta be able to trust your staff because when you do that, they are going to so surprise you more than you ever think, right?
00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:54.480
Here's the truth you cannot create trust-inspired culture if you don't model trust-inspire leadership.
00:14:54.480 --> 00:14:56.240
And so that's kind of what I'm getting at, right?
00:14:56.240 --> 00:14:59.440
Starts with you, you have to be the one to get that going.
00:14:59.440 --> 00:15:01.839
So you're gonna have to let go of control.
00:15:01.839 --> 00:15:05.599
You're gonna have to let check yourself, you're gonna have to check your ego, right?
00:15:05.599 --> 00:15:08.319
Check the ego out the door because guess what?
00:15:08.319 --> 00:15:09.839
It's not about you.
00:15:09.839 --> 00:15:15.519
You may be the building principal, you may be in, you may be in leadership, but guess what?
00:15:15.519 --> 00:15:16.559
It's not about you.
00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:18.079
It's about the team.
00:15:18.079 --> 00:15:24.879
It's about the people you lead is more important than you as that leader.
00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:30.720
But you're the one that has to, you're the one that gets to lead with trust and inspire leadership.
00:15:30.720 --> 00:15:33.039
So let go of that ego, guys.
00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:35.519
Who cares who gets the credit?
00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:36.480
Because guess what?
00:15:36.480 --> 00:15:38.079
We're all in it together, right?
00:15:38.079 --> 00:15:42.480
Letting go of needing to be the smartest person in the room.
00:15:42.480 --> 00:15:44.720
Some of you guys out there are like that, right?
00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:47.359
I I'm the smartest one here.
00:15:47.359 --> 00:15:49.119
That's why I'm the leader.
00:15:49.119 --> 00:15:52.720
Guys, you don't have to be the smartest one in the room.
00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:57.599
There's things that I don't, you know, like there's times where I'm like, oh, you know what?
00:15:57.599 --> 00:16:01.039
Let's put our heads together, let's figure this out together, because guess what?
00:16:01.039 --> 00:16:04.960
More than one brain together is gonna be better than the one brain.
00:16:04.960 --> 00:16:06.319
It's just gonna happen.
00:16:06.319 --> 00:16:07.279
Right?
00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:11.839
So let go of those things, but then replace it with these things.
00:16:11.839 --> 00:16:12.960
Listening.
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:22.640
Listen to your staff, empower your staff, build that capacity, develop them, help them become better.
00:16:22.640 --> 00:16:23.680
Because guess what?
00:16:23.680 --> 00:16:25.039
You do those things?
00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:27.359
Man, you're gonna you're gonna change your school.
00:16:27.359 --> 00:16:32.000
You're gonna change your school because you are leading with trust inspired leadership.
00:16:32.000 --> 00:16:33.759
Now, there's some barriers.
00:16:33.759 --> 00:16:36.400
You know, there's some real barriers we face.
00:16:53.220 --> 00:16:55.540
So here's some things you gotta think about.
00:16:55.540 --> 00:17:01.939
People get really nervous about trust inspired leadership because they think about what if I lose control?
00:17:01.939 --> 00:17:04.419
Well, guess what?
00:17:04.419 --> 00:17:10.899
Sometimes you gotta let go of that control and let people show you they can handle it.
00:17:10.899 --> 00:17:23.059
Because once you do that, you're gonna build confidence that they can, and you're gonna become more trusted and be able to inspire people to do more because you're gonna have to be okay with the fear of losing control.
00:17:23.059 --> 00:17:25.859
Now, you won't.
00:17:25.859 --> 00:17:37.299
You won't lose control because when you trust and inspire people, that's where they get empowered, they feel valued and important, and they're not gonna want to let you down.
00:17:37.299 --> 00:17:39.460
I think that's something you gotta remember about that.
00:17:39.460 --> 00:17:41.460
What if it doesn't work?
00:17:41.460 --> 00:17:42.259
Well, guess what?
00:17:42.259 --> 00:17:45.619
We're humans, we're gonna lead, we're gonna learn by failure, guys.
00:17:45.619 --> 00:17:46.659
And it's okay.
00:17:46.659 --> 00:17:52.179
Learn from your failures, move on, get over it, get better.
00:17:52.179 --> 00:17:54.500
What if I've been burned before?
00:17:54.500 --> 00:17:57.699
What if I trust this person and they burn me?
00:17:57.699 --> 00:18:01.220
Well, don't forget about it, but guess what?
00:18:01.220 --> 00:18:03.059
Doesn't mean you can't trust other people.
00:18:03.059 --> 00:18:07.059
Just because this person burns you doesn't mean that person's going to.
00:18:07.059 --> 00:18:09.220
Something you gotta think about, right?
00:18:09.220 --> 00:18:11.299
That's some that's a real thing, guys.
00:18:11.299 --> 00:18:12.419
I've seen it.
00:18:12.419 --> 00:18:17.779
Every principal has felt these things.
00:18:17.779 --> 00:18:22.179
Because trusting people means you're taking a risk.
00:18:22.179 --> 00:18:29.220
But here's the flip side not trusting peace people also has a cost.
00:18:29.220 --> 00:18:31.939
Because that can lead to burnout for you.
00:18:31.939 --> 00:18:38.980
Like you as a leader, you're gonna burn yourself out because you are not leading by trust and inspired leadership.
00:18:38.980 --> 00:18:44.579
You're gonna have disengaged staff because they're not gonna feel valued, they're not gonna feel important.
00:18:44.579 --> 00:18:52.579
And you're gonna build a culture if you can stay in that command and control, you're gonna build a culture where people do the minimum.
00:18:52.579 --> 00:18:58.019
But in trust and inspire leadership culture, people are gonna want to go above and beyond.
00:18:58.019 --> 00:18:59.699
That is a real thing.
00:18:59.699 --> 00:19:02.259
I've seen it with my own eyes in real time.
00:19:02.259 --> 00:19:14.339
I'm not gonna go into the situation, but I've actually seen that in my leadership because I try my best to trust my staff and to aspire to them the best I can.
00:19:14.339 --> 00:19:24.819
But I really didn't know what I was doing until I read this book, and now I'm getting a lot more solid information to be able to lead this way even better than I did before.
00:19:24.819 --> 00:19:28.419
So I think that's really important for us to remember.
00:19:28.419 --> 00:19:34.499
Here's the reality everything, if everything depends on you.
00:19:34.499 --> 00:19:39.139
If your school cannot run without you, that is a problem.
00:19:39.139 --> 00:19:47.219
That is a problem because your school never reaches full potential because you have to be there.
00:19:47.219 --> 00:19:52.099
You should be able to go to a workshop.
00:19:52.099 --> 00:20:04.179
You should be able to leave your school because you got systems in place, you have people you can entrust to take care of things while you go out and get yourself better at times, too, right?
00:20:04.179 --> 00:20:09.219
You deserve to go to some of these regional, state conventions and national conventions out there.
00:20:09.219 --> 00:20:14.259
You deserve to have professional development and not always stuck in the building all the time, right?
00:20:14.259 --> 00:20:15.859
You want that for your staff, but guess what?
00:20:15.859 --> 00:20:20.659
You gotta do those things as a leader too, because that's how you grow, that's how you get better.
00:20:20.659 --> 00:20:24.979
If you can't leave your school, there's a problem there.
00:20:24.979 --> 00:20:26.259
Think about that.
00:20:26.259 --> 00:20:30.659
So that's where the trust and inspired leadership comes in for you.
00:20:30.659 --> 00:20:34.019
That's how you break that barrier of command and control.
00:20:34.019 --> 00:20:36.179
We gotta get out of that.
00:20:36.179 --> 00:20:43.939
Now, one of my favorite concepts in this framework is we don't fix people, we grow people, right?
00:20:43.939 --> 00:20:45.379
We're not there to fix them.
00:20:45.379 --> 00:20:47.939
Everybody's gonna come with faults, everybody's gonna come with baggage, right?
00:20:47.939 --> 00:20:51.939
Everybody's gonna come with things they gotta do to get better, right?
00:20:51.939 --> 00:20:53.539
How do we grow them?
00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:27.439
00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:35.439
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:37.439
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:42.959
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:52.719
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:56.719
00:01:56.719 --> 00:01:58.719
00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:08.000
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:10.079
00:02:10.079 --> 00:02:14.799
00:02:14.799 --> 00:02:17.519
00:02:17.519 --> 00:02:32.079
00:02:32.079 --> 00:02:34.000
00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:36.560
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:40.240
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:48.159
00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:49.680
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:54.719
00:02:54.719 --> 00:03:04.319
00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:13.199
00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:24.079
00:03:24.079 --> 00:03:28.639
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:28.959
00:03:28.959 --> 00:03:29.919
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:38.560
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:40.159
00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:46.400
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:50.719
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:56.159
00:03:56.159 --> 00:04:03.919
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:08.719
00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:09.919
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:17.680
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:24.240
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:28.799
00:04:28.799 --> 00:04:33.360
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:42.399
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:49.199
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:55.759
00:04:55.759 --> 00:05:05.919
00:05:05.919 --> 00:05:09.600
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:12.879
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:21.279
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:26.480
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:31.759
00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:50.319
00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:56.000
00:05:56.000 --> 00:06:11.439
00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:18.879
00:06:18.879 --> 00:06:20.879
00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:23.120
00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:26.159
00:06:26.159 --> 00:06:28.079
00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:39.920
00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:42.800
00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:46.399
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:51.040
00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:58.480
00:06:58.480 --> 00:07:02.240
00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:09.839
00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:13.199
00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:15.360
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:19.759
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:23.519
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:26.639
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:30.560
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:36.879
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:38.399
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:44.399
00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:48.639
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:53.519
00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:58.399
00:07:58.399 --> 00:08:07.599
00:08:07.599 --> 00:08:10.240
00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:13.759
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:15.439
00:08:15.439 --> 00:08:19.120
00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:21.279
00:08:21.279 --> 00:08:22.560
00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:26.319
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:31.279
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:39.519
00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:45.120
00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:47.519
00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:55.920
00:08:55.920 --> 00:09:00.720
00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:11.279
00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:12.799
00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:20.240
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:25.120
00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:30.879
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:36.720
00:09:36.720 --> 00:09:46.960
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:54.799
00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:58.160
00:09:58.160 --> 00:10:02.960
00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:08.400
00:10:08.400 --> 00:10:14.160
00:10:14.160 --> 00:10:15.200
00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:20.319
00:10:20.319 --> 00:10:24.079
00:10:24.079 --> 00:10:28.640
00:10:28.640 --> 00:10:36.640
00:10:36.640 --> 00:10:42.400
00:10:42.400 --> 00:10:46.480
00:10:46.480 --> 00:11:06.559
00:11:06.559 --> 00:11:17.839
00:11:17.839 --> 00:11:20.079
00:11:20.079 --> 00:11:27.599
00:11:27.599 --> 00:11:33.440
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:35.599
00:11:35.599 --> 00:11:39.759
00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:41.359
00:11:41.359 --> 00:11:50.079
00:11:50.079 --> 00:11:57.839
00:11:57.839 --> 00:12:02.000
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:25.200
00:12:25.200 --> 00:12:27.200
00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:28.640
00:12:28.640 --> 00:12:31.839
00:12:31.839 --> 00:12:35.680
00:12:35.680 --> 00:12:44.319
00:12:44.319 --> 00:12:53.839
00:12:53.839 --> 00:12:54.720
00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:58.799
00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:00.879
00:13:00.879 --> 00:13:08.079
00:13:08.079 --> 00:13:10.640
00:13:10.640 --> 00:13:17.519
00:13:17.519 --> 00:13:19.519
00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:25.839
00:13:25.839 --> 00:13:29.279
00:13:29.279 --> 00:13:31.359
00:13:31.359 --> 00:13:32.400
00:13:32.400 --> 00:13:41.839
00:13:41.839 --> 00:13:50.160
00:13:50.160 --> 00:13:53.279
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:55.920
00:13:55.920 --> 00:14:01.119
00:14:01.119 --> 00:14:02.960
00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:05.119
00:14:05.119 --> 00:14:12.400
00:14:12.400 --> 00:14:17.920
00:14:17.920 --> 00:14:20.319
00:14:20.319 --> 00:14:25.599
00:14:25.599 --> 00:14:29.440
00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:34.160
00:14:34.160 --> 00:14:36.559
