Hi Reader! The last few weeks have been a whirlwind and have honestly kind of kicked my butt a bit, including...
Professionally, I did a mid-year stepback, was so pumped to facilitate this with a dear friend and I wrapped up two big projects the last week of school. I'm using the summer to plan some exciting ways to serve leaders that are coming together slowly-- and it's my birthday Monday! 🎉 A few months ago, I promised myself I would share something with you before my birthday. I've been working on it for a few years, and have been using with clients behind the scenes to help them level up their leadership. I've mentioned it in some of my leadership lifts, and on calls, but not broadly and I promised myself that by my birthday, I would share it publicly. It's a framework for how to lead through layers: four major domains you need to follow to help you build clarity, unity, predictability, then sustainability. It's been incredibly helpful to leaders and has so much rich learning inside of it. You'll hear a lot more from me on this--what each of the four stages means, the moves embedded in each domain, how to translate this practically into real life and leadership. I really wanted to do a lot of this with the unveil, in a grand way, with lots of fun resources--- but in the spirit of not letting perfect be the enemy of the good, I'm sharing it here, so you can check it out. I'd LOVE to hear your thoughts, questions, reactions and what resonates.
I'm sure there are ways this can be more clear--or topics that you want to know more about--or just reactions you'd have and I welcome them all. Any reactions and thoughts would be an early birthday gift to me if you're inclined 😀 I'm taking Monday off to celebrate the big 4-8, but I'm excited to be back later next week with some ways I want to celebrate with you and of course more to come on this framework I'm so excited about! Take care, Beth ps. Seriously, excited to hear what you think--hit reply and let me know. Since I'm giving you very little context I'm eager to hear your gut reaction! 📈 Leadership LiftsGet actionable strategies in 30 minutes, with practical tools you can use right away.

Helping Leaders Level Up Their Impact
Leadership can be exhilarating and isolating--sometimes in the same hour! Twice a week, I share practical insights and real-world stories to help you tackle challenges with clarity, strengthen your team, and grow into the leader you want to be.
Hey Reader! Yesterday I talked to 3 school leaders: two on calls and one I ran into at a bris. In all those convos, the feeling of this time of year came up--the finish line is in sight, yet the to-do list feels unending. End of year testing, field trips, graduations, ceremonies, staff plans changing for next year suddenly.... plus we've caught Knicks fever over here, and the NBA finals are keeping me up wayyyy past my bedtime. (Worth it but wow I am tired.) Some of you have ended the school...
Hey Reader, Chances are high by now you've heard of May-cember: that busy time of year with end of year trips, performances, plays, recitals, .. all the joyful end of school year activities that on their own are great, but can add up to be a lot. As a solo parent with three kids who are all "seniors" at their schools (if 5th grade or 8th grade can be a senior), this year for me brings award ceremonies for all kids, new school orientations for the 3 new schools they are attending in the fall...
Hey! Reader! How are all my Perennial Plus signs doing this last day of April? (whoa, right?) Since next week is the first full week of May that means it's Teacher Appreciation Week. (If you're a school leader and this just gave you a heart attack, I'm so sorry. I have a Teacher Appreciation Week Planning Guide here you can use that I promise you can work even as last minute as Sunday or Monday--DNR, but I've been in your shoes and get it!) I feel like 👵🏻 saying this, but back when I first...
