Blog, articles, stories, and thinking out loud
“Your experience can profoundly affect the people around you whether you are aware of it or not.”
- Brené Brown
Our stories matter.
In our personal life and professsional role, showing up authentically as ourselves, succeeding and failing greatly, being brave, and forging our own path is what it’s all about.
Sharing our journeys through stories and writings allows us to process these experiences, understand what we have learned, and recognize where the journey has brought us.
Sharing our stories and ideas requires courage and vulnerability, and through these processes we revisit many of the same emotions we experienced on the journey itself -self-doubt, shame, confusion, exhilaration, humility. In the sharing of our stories, we help others along their journey as well.
That’s the intention of this Blog: EgeworkLife. Here you will find stories of lessons learned, grand adventures, van life, everyday life, and life and work “on the edge.”
Reopening schools: Two heads share a framework
This article, originally written in May, 2020, went unpublished. It is made available via this blog with the intent to provide an enduring framework to respond to school crises, but also to acknowledge a moment in time when all schools began to grapple with the implications of COVID-19. Today, as this blog is posted, we mark the one-year anniversary of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Social Emotional Health and Remote Learning
Read about my conversation with @Laura Ascione from @eSchool News about St. Thomas School’s transition to remote learning and how we come together to maintain a strong sense of community in the era of COVID19.
