I loved this op-ed by @MiriamWarren beautiful ✨💛 – at Oakland, CA
OPINION: "In an era marked by the relentless pursuit of goals and the perpetual busyness of life, a conscious and regular contemplation of death can guide us toward using our limited time more wisely and meaningfully," writes Miriam Warren. trib.al/CpMCF5D

When asked what advice he would offer other leaders facing similar turmoil, he says, “Every school community has a quiet majority. Authentically and genuinely reach out to them.” Another encouraging and inspiring piece from @courtwrites.
In Middletown, Ohio, the day-to-day work of building trust in the community set the stage for defusing the culture wars confronting the city’s public schools. bit.ly/42loaIs

Today my father-in-law texted to say that he can count on one hand the number of Americans who know the difference between floundering and foundering. Thankfully, I am one of them. 😮‍💨

At this moment, when inclusion efforts have become politicized, it's more vital than ever for companies to keep their public promises to rededicate themselves to their diversity, inclusion, and belonging commitments. Troublingly, the trend is quite the opposite.

Absolutely loved We All Want Impossible Things, my first read of 2023. Thank you @CatheriNewman for writing this gem. I wanted to read it slowly, almost like parceling out a really good bar of chocolate. But who are we kidding? I don't have that kind of willpower!
