What Our Community is Saying

"The Art of Coaching Teams workshop went beyond meeting my expectations. It felt so good to be part of a community of learners who wanted to be there and were so open and vulnerable with their contributions to the learning. I liked the role-playing best. It was scary, but it was impactful to practice real potential conversations in a low-stakes way. I really appreciate the learning experience and would take another Bright Morning course in a heartbeat."

Randi R.
What Our Community is Saying

"As a new supervisor next year, I am so very grateful to have attended The Art of Coaching Teams in-person workshop. I can set up a team with the foundational skills of building meaningful team agreements that will support all members being seen, heard, and valued. In addition, we can begin the year by building our team's emotional intelligence and learning practices for engaging in healthy conflict. By participating in the workshop, I know I have the capacity, tools, and resources to lead in a way that aligns with my core values as a human and educator."

What Our Community is Saying

"This space was safe, generous, and so loving in cresting time to learn, expand, and grow our practices. I’m grateful for our facilitators and the way they held space for our engagement and gentleness in our connection. I learned so much and am eager to bring it back to my teams!"

Brittany R.
What Our Community is Saying

"One of the richest impacts has been the web of understanding that’s building around our district as four of the curricular leaders participate in this same membership AND as more and more of our staff members participate in other trainings (Art of Coaching Teams, Coaching for Equity and/or Taste of Coaching for Equity). Having a common frame of reference and range of experiences has changed my learning into a richer, deeper, more powerful community learning experience."

Rebecca L.
What Our Community is Saying

"This workshop helped to reframe my thinking about those I may see as difficult and uninterested in engaging in change or adopting new ideas. It gave me the comfort and strength to not give up on them but instead to pull them in and listen more."

Lisa L.
What Our Community is Saying

"After 35 years in education, I feel rejuvenated and that I have a new sense of purpose. I will be eternally grateful for Bright Morning. You have been there when I needed you the most and have provided me with immense opportunities for personal and professional growth. I am grateful for Elena and for the dedication of her team to create world-class trainings. I am humbled and blessed to have stretched and grown within the safety of this community."

Andrea M.
What Our Community is Saying

"In my experience, Bright Morning has always provided relevant, applicable, 'just-in-time' tools that have enabled me to build my practice on solid ground. My Bright Morning Membership has been the silver lining of my year. This offer has paid off exponentially. All learning experiences have added a new layer of understanding for me. Now that I’ve experienced the benefits of a year-long membership, I really can’t imagine going back to a 'once-a-year professional development' approach."

My favorite part of being a Bright Morning member is the access to the incredible resources associated with our membership. Bright Morning is already generous with the free tools they provide educators and, as a member, there’s even more access. Another favorite part of my membership is that the incredible trainers actually show us how to use the tools in Elena’s books for full impact. I’ve learned so much about myself and my work and have leveled up my skills as both a coach and trainer. This membership is the gift that keeps giving!
