"Meet me at Grand Central Terminal."
I'm not sure what's about to happen with my life at the end of the month - it could be more exploration or it could be a moment where I'd have to be deep in it again.
I promised to myself that I'd have time for me, I'd be open to love, I'd live it, and try not to control life.
Cheers to that.

A friend of mine was painting this at the cafe for fun and she was about to throw it out & I asked her if I could have it.
Bc it’s so simply good - I just want to get to the part where we and others root each other on.

So much thanks for all the support. I created a listening guiding questions list bc some people who 🗣️ without listening are missing the point.

Teaching the zine & collaging workshop tonight was a lot of fun. I didn’t make an “exemplar” and chose to lean in and just do it with them.

I used to think the path had to be teacher ➡️ AP ➡️ principal ➡️ district. But nah. You can pivot. You can be more than one thing. You don’t need permission to begin.
Now I call myself a creative.

Alexis & I were ✨founding school ✨ people through and through 😂 I taught at 3, she founded one & helped lead another. In Ep. 1 of We’re Still Dreaming, we reflect on teaching, TFA, our growth, & what we’d tell our 20-something selves.
