Many of the biggest challenges seniors face are also the easiest for us to solve if we notice.

Heart of the Valley offers free wheelchairs, walkers, and incontinence supplies to seniors in need.

This is such a powerful read.

Big thanks to #EveryChildCalifornia for shining a light on what so many early learning providers are navigating.

It’s a sobering reminder of how much these #educators carry on their shoulders, and how much they deserve our support.

Take a look. You’ll learn a lot.

Took a break from my usual pace this summer and slowed down with a trip through #Britain.

Wandered into unplanned stops: Balmoral, Highland cows, even an open-top bus in #London (and the best scone… on a plane!).

Not everything needs to be planned to be meaningful.

During the pandemic, daily walks in the park helped me reset.
Research from Oregon State backs it up: outdoor space supports #mentalhealth.

Parks are part of our #CareInfrastructure—and access matters if we want real progress on #HealthEquity.

Public space is a public good.
Your local park might be as important as your local hospital, new study finds
The Oregon State University study says parks should be considered essential mental health infrastructure.

Big win for #EarlyChildhoodEducation in CA: new budget extends cost-of-care payments, improves reimbursements, and supports providers. Proof that strong advocacy works.

Happy #FourthOfJuly.

This holiday is always a mix of celebration and reflection for me.

I think about the communities I’ve worked with and how #independence looks different for everyone.

I wish you a safe, restful holiday and a moment to reflect on the #freedoms that matter most to you.

A 4-year study shows that kids who struggle to control screen habits (especially starting around age 11) face higher risks of mental health challenges, including suicidal ideation.

We must shift from worrying about how much to focusing on how it’s used and why.

Staying active is essential to quality of life as we age.

Sanford Health reminds us how hobbies, movement, and community can keep us connected, engaged, and thriving.

This is what aging with purpose can look like.

Mantras get a bad rap but in #leadership and life, we’re constantly processing inputs.
A good #mantra helps you filter that noise and respond with intention.

I choose the lens that keeps me focused, kind, and forward-moving. Find the framing that works for you.

I spent time at our #ElkGrove sites and left smiling.

Between the welcome sign and the “summer vision” wall, it was clear how much thought and care go into these programs.

Thanks to everyone who made the visit meaningful. It’s always great to see the work up close.

Everyone's story is different. Some have present, loving dads. Some are navigating loss, absence, or complicated relationships. Some are supported by figures who don’t share the title. There’s no one way to experience this day.

Let’s keep showing up with care and compassion.

Medicaid supports over 60% of nursing home residents, and the caregivers who do essential work. Cuts to that system aren’t abstract. They affect real people, in real time. We need to invest in care before we need it ourselves.

How cutting Medicaid could upend long-term care for many older Americans
Experts told PBS News that there are ways to ensure older adults get the quality and type of care they need, but most require more resources, not less.

Play isn’t a break from learning; it is learning.
On #InternationalDayOfPlay, let’s remember that kids need space to explore, take risks, and be themselves.
Protecting time for play means investing in who they’re becoming.

Whether you're building a new model, scaling a team, or showing up for your community in a hard moment, growth usually lives just on the other side of fear.

Thanks to @amitrakhit.bsky.social for sparking this reflection.

Working in #ClinicalResearch has shown me the value of uncovering the unknown. Meaningful #discovery requires patience, curiosity, confidence, and trust in the process. We must do these things without telling ourselves we can't. Even if it hasn't been done, someone has to be the first. Why not you?

I visited several #CatalystKids sites in the Bay Area recently and left proud, as always, of the teams and what we are building for the communities and the children.

It’s a privilege to spend time with them, ask real questions, and see what strong programs look like in action.

If you're working in #EarlyEducation or leading those who do, Theories of Childhood by Carol Garhart Mooney is worth your shelf space.

Clear, practical, and grounded in real-world insight.

An apology is a leadership skill.

This framework is simple, but not always easy. Power comes from clarity: owning mistakes, expressing regret, and committing to improve.

It builds trust. It models growth. And it keeps teams human.

#AuthenticLeadership #TeamCulture
The most important part of an apology is not saying sorry. It's taking responsibility for what you did wrong and taking action to make it right.

Admitting mistakes doesn’t mean you're a bad person. It's an effort to be a better person—and a display of care for another person.

Visited one of our #SeasonalMigrant sites and walked into a room full of music and care.

Two staff members were singing to a group of little ones, creating calm, connection, and comfort through something as simple as song.

This is #EarlyEd at its best. #Leadership #CommunityImpact

Visited our Seasonal Migrant program sites and left deeply inspired.

These seasonal programs are full of joy, care, and educators who show up with heart. #Accessibility matters, and so does how we deliver it.

Let’s build models that move with students.

Inflation is hitting families and child care providers.

At Catalyst, we’re facing the exact rising costs, and still showing up for teachers, staff, and the families who rely on us.

When we support care providers, we help every child they serve.

Generations by Jean Twenge is a standout.

Clear, data-driven, and refreshingly free of clichés. If you lead across age groups or just want a sharper lens on generational shifts, this one’s worth your time.

Big, sweeping moves feel satisfying, but that's not how #progress happens. Consistent, deliberate shifts are the way.

We’re a super tanker. One click at a time steers the course.

This mindset reminds me to #TrustTheProcess, stay patient, and never underestimate the impact of a small, smart move.

During the height of COVID, Catalyst kept our doors open for the families who couldn’t stay home.

Kids needed a safe place to be, and we showed up for them.

Still one of the proudest chapters of our work.

Another look at the incredible teams I had the chance to visit in Oxnard and Ventura.

Not all the work is flashy, but it's all important. We're building environments where kids learn, grow, and feel safe.

I am so proud of the care and #commitment. Thank you for making it happen!
