Imagine sitting in a room full of educators who are "that" teacher or leader in your school or district. The ones who significantly impact the kids, their colleagues, and the community. The ones that usually exist in a vacuum in any location. A few years ago, I had the honor of being in that room, and what was most amazing about it was there was no ego, no sense of competition, and no need to be shy or ashamed of what we have each accomplished.
It was the first time I truly felt like I belonged professionally. The only other time I felt like this was at my first Grateful Dead show in 1994 - the first time I felt like I had found my people. Honestly, there is nothing better than knowing people get you without judgment, and if you're me, that wasn't a common occurrence. I've always been different.
