July was a crazy month. I even wrote a Friday Thought about how quickly Moments turn to Memories. Considering my favorite podcasts, conversations, and songs of the month have a similar feel . . . how in the world has it come and gone so quickly?
Regardless, goodbye July, and welcome August! I truly am looking forward to it.

I LOVE this reminder. So much so, that it has inspired me to think more about how it can apply to schools and leadership teams and how we show up to work. I shared my thoughts in a blog post entitled, Giving less than 100% is 100% okay. Let me know what you think! I’d be curious for your thoughts.
Let me know of anything you’ve been reading, watching, listening to, or have been inspired by!
Happy August!
