Connection requires vulnerability. Be human, be compassionate, listen, allow our youth to be human too. #LiveLoveNow @handsfreemama #handsfreerevolution

Reading Live Love Now by Rachel May Stafford @handsfreemama - page 2 & annotating is already heavy! Truth to every word! #LiveLoveNow

The students can tell when you care. So please don’t stop caring... even from a distance.

The very fire I’m trying to extinguish, is the very fire that is going to burn me up if I don’t take care of myself. It’s really impractical and puts the school in a detriment if we don’t take care of our educators. - @dianap_patton #wholechildsummit https://t.co/1jrowT4GVA

[Kathleen Olson @aquaticswmn]

We better be promoting educator’s emotional well-being, but once we get them in a well place, we need to help them enact and put in place effective practices, in a non-judgment, supportive, continuous improvement way. - @ClayCook_phd #wholechildsummit

When we see kids that do things they are proud of without any extrinsic rewards and they know they are making a difference and they are doing something that is helping others. The sense of significance they have from that is priceless. - @DavidGeurin #wholechildsummit

[Kathleen Olson @aquaticswmn]

Education of the whole child matters. We don’t want to just manage and get behaviors to change out of compliance, but because of character. That they see something in them that they have to offer that they can give. - @DavidGeurin #wholechildsummit https://t.co/1jrowT4GVA

[Kathleen Olson @aquaticswmn]

When you know your own value, and people speaking into your life, that’s when you can give and share your leadership with others. - @DavidGeurin #wholechildsummit https://t.co/1jrowT4GVA

Game changer in life! Learning how to be less negative is by far more powerful than trying to be more positive. - @TrevorMoawad #wholechildsummit https://t.co/1jrowT4GVA

[Kathleen Olson @aquaticswmn]

A lot of people have a rough stretch in their lives, and they just concede the rest of the year, and reboot next year. You had a bad stretch, but tomorrow could be different, the last half of a day could be different. - @TrevorMoawad #wholechildsummit https://t.co/1jrowT4GVA

[Kathleen Olson @aquaticswmn]

Focus on the next behavior, regardless of what just happened, opposed to the outcome. - @TrevorMoawad #wholechildsummit https://t.co/1jrowT4GVA

[Kathleen Olson @aquaticswmn]

Mind shifting! Neutral Thinking = Whatever happened happened. If something bad happened it’s real. If I’m trying to be positive then it’s almost like I have to pretend it didn’t happen, but it did. - @TrevorMoawad #wholechildsummit https://t.co/1jrowT4GVA

[Kathleen Olson @aquaticswmn]

If you say something negative outloud, it is almost 40 to 70 times more powerful than if you never said anything at all. - @TrevorMoawad #wholechildsummit https://t.co/1jrowT4GVA
