Thank you Riverbend School!

I’m still relishing the two days I spent this week with the senior leadership team at Riverbend School.

The team showed up ready to engage, think deeply, and collaborate.

Plus, the setting was beautiful.

It was truly the perfect place to step back, reflect, and get energized for the year ahead.

Over two full days, we focused on building trust, strengthening communication, and laying the groundwork for a strong, intentional year of leadership.

I know some leaders hesitate to hold retreats in June because it feels too soon to plan for the next year.

But when retreats are designed well, they’re not just productive.

They’re rejuvenating.

Starting the summer with clarity, alignment, and connection sets the whole year up for success.

Thank you again to Brooke Hopkins and the entire Riverbend team for inviting me into this important work.

I can’t wait to see all this team accomplishes this year.

(By the way: If you haven’t seen Riverbend's new property yet, do yourself a favor and connect with Brooke for a tour. It’s incredible.)
