Dear Teachers
I wrote "Planning to Stay" as the rope I used to climb out of my own burnout.
I offer it here as a bridge between where you are and where you'd like to be.
My time these days is more directed to supporting relationships to heal, but I love working with educators. If you have an idea of how I can support you and your colleagues, please reach out.
