Inspire!
I transitioned into a tech lead a year ago and at first it was kind of annoyed by all the requests from the team regarding technical assistance.
I realized there were two paths I could take. 1. Continue to be annoyed and try to get as much coding in as I can. 2. Sit down with each individual, help them, give examples of how things should work etc.
Luckily I chose the latter option and I have a great relationship with all the team, I have strong coders that are more self-sufficient, and I enjoy more time coding now.
I think the lesson I learned is that you get out of your team much more than you put in, strive to inspire your devs.
