Yesterday a parent called me with safety concerns. She was clear and kind. Direct and constructive. I was so grateful for the honesty and even more grateful for the approach. She treated me like I was on her team, because I am. We need more of this in education.

The number one emotion I hear from teachers is “overwhelm”. When we’ve acknowledged it as a collective and they are heard, they’ve left with a sense of peace.
Acknowledgement is where start.

Creativity is one of the top skills we need right now in Education and work, yet 75% of people don’t think they are creative. On the podcast today: What is crushing your creativity and how to unleash it.

Took #teachers in White Rock and Kelowna through a process of identifying underlying emotions they’ve been carrying. Do you identify with any of these? We can hold all kinds of emotions at the same time.

Another thought from a neurodiverse teen: “School was created to produce workers. Now school can also create great thinkers.”

I had teachers write down: what do you want to create? On this box. This is what they came up with ❤️
You can create even in constraint.

Flourishing means we can feel all kinds of emotions at the same time. There is strength in the struggle.
