educational consulting

We support educators and community members in re-centering their core focus so that they can lead with intention, balance, and joy

Educators and community members need a clear roadmap

on how to integrate equity-based solutions to increase students’ academic and social achievement.

You’ve spent the funds to purchase new curriculum and send your employees to training, yet throwing money at a problem without doing the necessary internal work to change mindsets, is creating a cycle of implementing new initiatives without fidelity, accountability, and on-going support.

It’s time to flex your approach!

Flex from the typical one-and-done learning experience

to a nurturing space of learning, joy, and radical love.

We support you via a root–cause analysis process to efficiently develop a 90-day plan to transform your learning experience. We can also support you with leadership consulting, workshops, and keynote speaking.

Flex your purpose and passion into a plan for success!

Our educational consulting services include:

Leadership Coaching

An empathetic yet challenging environment will help you thrive; 3-months, 6-months, or 10-month coaching packages for one-on-one or small group hybrid coaching experiences. Timely, targeted, and strategic feedback and support.

90-Day Cycle Development

6 or 12 month packaged experience with root-cause analysis, equity-audit, a 90-day plan (1 or 2 cycles) and incremental hybrid checkpoint coaching.

Educational Identity Formation Workshops

Learning to look within is the first step to flexing your knowledge and tapping into your identity-based assets. Our workshops include "Developing your ‘Why’ Statement" and "The Best Part of Me Experience".

Keynote Speaking

Our presentations are "Is Equity a Noun or a Verb in Your Improvement Plan?" and "Aligning Your Procedures With the People You Serve". These presentations can be virtual or in-person with an option for follow-up session (s).
