Summertime may be for vacations, camp, and relaxation, but if you have a teen, it can also be when you start to feel the push and pull of your adolescent growing up.

Acts of kindness shouldn't be described as random. They aren't arbitrary or unintentional. They stem from deeply held values or strongly felt emotions.
Helping is an expression of care. It's a decision that someone's well-being matters to you—and an effort to matter to them.

Compassion isn't a cause of burnout. It's a source of energy.
Data: Being kind to others can reduce cynicism. Being kind to yourself can lessen exhaustion. Kindness restores belonging, control, & confidence.
The times when you need a hand are often the best times to extend one.

In this episode of the “Dare to Lead” podcast, I’m talking with @iamjamesrhee about the transformative power of kindness at work. It blew my mind and reassured my heart. #redhelicopter bit.ly/3wNGSfF
ALT James Rhee on the value of kindness at work: Creating a culture of kindness at work distributes the joy of problem-solving to everyone, creates a safe environment that unleashes innovation, and turns perceived liabilities into assets to create real equity value in every meaning of the word.

Many parents try to protect their kids by teaching them that the world is a dangerous place.
6 studies: people who believe the world is generally good and safe have better mental health and more success.
Kids can learn to see most people as good and still guard against the bad.

This is not a new book but I just recently listened to @micheleborba ‘s #Unselfie about #empathy and it’s a must read for parents and educators hoping to encourage actively empathetic kids. The audiobook is fantastic. #edchat #edutwitter

Two words: Ice. Scraper.
Wait, another two words: Slow. Down.
Hold on, another two words: Give. Space.
Two more: Winter. Tires.
Just two more words: Double. Double.

Good Thursday morning York Region! Get ready for a wild day of nasty weather. It is 6 right now with heavy rain - around 2PM that rain will turn to freezing rain and then to heavy snow the rest of the day and overnight. Be careful on the roads! #StormWatch @YRP @OPP_GTATraffic
