Dr. Chris Dennis shares updates on his book Lonely Graduation, thanks listeners for pre-orders, and recounts presenting at SoCal POSIS’s Bring POCC Home event. He reflects on community, networking, and the power of affinity gatherings in independent schools.

He also summarizes a keynote by Dr. Rodney Glasgow about treating your spaces—home, classroom, office—as sacred places to be grounded, restored, and refueled, and encourages educators to personalize and protect those spaces.
