Getting feedback like this after a PD day in MAY? We’ll take it.
This was one of the most impactful days of our year. Thank you, Ventura Park. ❤️We can’t wait to see you in the fall!

A little behind on posting this because... you know… May.
But opening the first box of A School Leader’s Playbook for Tough Conversations from our publisher was a pretty exciting moment.

Standing room only at #NWPBIS in Spokane! We had educators spilling out into the hallways (& they weren’t even in trouble 😉).
We shared strategies for de-escalation, avoiding power struggles, and building stronger connections.
Swipe through to see what attendees had to say!

Loved presenting at the AT-TIES conference about one the often challenging parts of our work, partnering with caregivers. When emotions run high, it’s easy for conversations to escalate. When we stay grounded, lead with curiosity, and focus on connection, partnership grows.

High-stakes conversations are part of the work. When we walk in prepared and calm, we do more than just get through, we strengthen connection and move the work forward. Get your playbook here: amzn.to/427E6jH @casas_jimmy @Jeff_Zoul @heydannybauer @ConnectEDDBooks

Holding the book in our hands and smiling big!
So much of this came from real conversations in real schools — the ones we got wrong, the ones we avoided, and the ones we learned from.

Most tough conversations go wrong because we’re not sure what to say.
We made a planning guide, drawn from our new book, A School Leader’s Playbook for Tough Conversations, to help you get clear on what to say and how to say it: connectingthroughconversatio…

A School Leader’s Playbook for Tough Conversations, didn’t come from theory. It came from the conversations we got wrong, avoided, and replayed.
A practical playbook for what to say, how to say it, and how to stay grounded when it matters most.

It’s here!
A School Leader’s Playbook for Tough Conversations is out.
When we started as school leaders, there wasn’t a book to tell us what to say or how to say it.
It didn’t exist. So we wrote it ourselves.

Best time at the SSDA Conference this week. Small schools & big relationships - where everyone knows everyone and there’s a good chance many of them are related.
Grateful for the conversation and the work these leaders do for their communities!
