Live in the Land of Possibility

Shownotes:  https://www.micheleschmidtmoore.com/podcast/30
Hey Designers,

I was sitting on my back porch listening to a podcast, not this one but the one from Heinemann. I get to talk to Stephanie Affinito in a few days, the author of Leading Literate Lives, and part of my preparation for conversations on the podcast is listening to what others have to say and she recently shared about her book on that podcast.  Her episode on Design Lessons is coming up later this month.  

This week, I’m preparing for Uncover the Leader in You Coaching Week, which really is technically a long weekend.  We will start on Friday night, meet on Sat and Sun midmorning and finish up on Monday and Tuesday nights.  If you haven’t already signed up...do so.  It’s going to be a time  of designing and creating and living in the land of possibility.  It’s an opportunity for you to design your ideal life--and your life’s work.  It’s a time to tap into what you are passionate about.  It’s a way to start the summer in a good space.

At this point in time, I don’t know whether I will be teaching virtually or in person next school year.  I’m still waiting to hear.  But I have started to envision the community that I want to build in either space.

I encourage you to do the same...start living in the land of possibility.  What do you want your community to feel like next year? How are you going to make it inclusive?  What structures do you want to have in place to make that a reality?

I’ve been dreaming about our community  as a  maker space. A space where we are making things. We are making podcasts and documentaries, and Tiktoks, and IG Stories, where we are writing stories and essays while still making sure that my students are covering the standards. I want my students invested in what they are creating and learning. But also I want them invested in each other.  I want to create smaller learning pods especially if I’m teaching virtually.  It’s so important when students are learning virtually that they have their people to connect to.

What’s in your land of possibility?  What are you dreaming of for your students?  For next year?  What are you dreaming of for yourself?  What are you dreaming of for your life’s work?

I hope you will join me this weekend as we live in the land of possibilities.  It’s such a great way to start the summer.  Design and dreaming about what could be.  We are going to be using the design thinking process to develop our ideal lives and life’s work?  A process that easily transfers to the work you can do with you students.
