Spent the week presenting for Lancaster School District, located east of Hollywood, CA and a Keynote for San Antonio Independent School District. The weather was a beautiful 80+ degrees and I had the best ribs ever! Now back to windy and cold NJ!

@redrum_2001 Added. Thank you!

I just saw the Springsteen movie. As a child therapist, it hit hard. From my perspective, it’s a story about coming to terms with child trauma and realizing what you’re doing to cope isn’t working, and, in the end, seeking therapy. It’s an important message.

Keynote for Tulare County, CA on 9/27. That feedback is my goal every time I stand before an audience of educators.

Today I submitted a proposal to speak at an early childhood conference. I was asked why my presentation would be an ideal keynote. This was my response…

Headed for home.

Quincy is now included in my trainings. Does that mean I have to pay him? 😂

What’s better than baseball on an off day? And yeah, I was a Giants fan for a few hours!

@duncfair @NYRLouie Should we show video evidence he has been a cone more often than a rock?

[Christian Bellissimo @c_bellissimo]

@kimbo_slice04 @NYRLouie agreed. Let’s move one of the few who plays the style that wins cups.

[Christian Bellissimo @c_bellissimo]

@NYRLouie I would add Cuyle to that list.

[Christian Bellissimo @c_bellissimo]

@NYRLouie I agree he has talent. But the progress isn’t there IMO. Watch the D men on these Stanley Cup contenders. He plays too soft.

Rocky Mountain Early Childhood Conference 2025. I hope to return for the third time next year. An airstream trip would be a dream!
