Summary

Episode 189: CIRCLE Roundtable Reflections: What Happens When Educators Truly Belong In the middle of an East Coast blizzard, our monthly CIRCLE Roundtable began. Some logged in right on time. Others arrived late. One joined after watching a tree fall on her outdoor classroom. And still… they showed up. This episode reflects on that unusual night — and what it revealed about community, commitment, and belonging. CIRCLE isn’t a masterclass. There are no slides or lessons. It’s a space for support, laughter, honest conversation, and real relationship. In this episode, we explore: What it means to show up imperfectly Why educators need spaces where they aren’t performing How storms reveal culture The quiet power of gathering — even when things feel uncertain Who are you showing up for? And who is showing up for you? 🌱 Because when we cultivate gardens, we cultivate belonging.
