Aspire to Lead

For anyone who has heard me present or speak as a guest on another podcast, you have heard that I’m extremely passionate about trauma informed and restorative practices. My wife and I have been foster parents for over 6 years and we had the amazing opportunity to learn from Karen Pervis and her Trust Based Relational Interventions, which has really shaped my views as an educational leader. After having the opportunity to meet my guest in person and learn what she is doing on her campus, I had to have her return to the Aspire Podcast. This week’s guest, Allyson Apsey, shares how she used her knowledge of Choice Theory and Trauma Informed practices to reshape her school’s culture.

This community is one of my favorite one-stop-shop tools to engage with other amazing school leaders. I use this online resource to gain insight, gather resources, and develop my leadership capacity.

The #1 Leadership Online community is generous and authentic, an antidote to the clutter and noise that other social media sites have become.

What makes this community different is that it is:

• An investment, not free
• A private community with the same goal
• A conversation, not a variety of self-promoting presentations
• Evergreen, not ephemeral
• Focused on serving school leaders, not advertisers, companies, or investors

I highly recommend using Go! Community to enhance your leadership skills!
