Inclusion requires #attention to learner diversity and an #intention by implentors to include. This won't happen by accident. Learn what the #SEL science says and how to address it. Thank you for the interview @edweek.org www.edweek.org/teaching-lea...

“Change is only possible, & all the greater, When the labour & bitter anger of our neighbors Is moved by the love & better angels of our nature. What they call death & void, We know is breath & voice; In the end, gorgeously, Endures our enormity.” Thank you @amandagorman.bsky.social

None of the proposals I was involved w/ were accepted to @sxsw.com @sxswedu.com this year. All of the proposals I am involved w/ were accepted to @aeraedresearch.bsky.social @ncme38.bsky.social If the goal is to share #science for the public good, then science needs to be where the #public is...

Honored to share that #BeUnapologeticallyImpatient was named a #Favorite #Parenting #Book of 2025 by the Greater Good Science Center @greatergoodmag.bsky.social Grateful for the recognition and continuously affirmed that we can and will live our #love #forward, one person at a time #joy #justice

Sick over the news coming from Brown this evening. I can’t believe this is where I live. #alexisonfire

Honored to see our meta-analysis of #SEL and #academicachievement named one of the top 10 most significant studies in Education this year! In this review we isolated the effects of SEL on student #math and #literacy achievement, in both #gpa and #test scores. www.edutopia.org/visual-essay...

It’s not, “just how he is” Stop pretending, “He doesn’t mean it” Don’t dismiss #hatespeech. The words we say, and don’t say, become the country we live in. All children and individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities deserve respect. Full stop. #inclusion #disabilityrights

We got up early to go shopping to donate toys and special gifts to our local community ❤️ our kids are sooo excited to stuff squishmallows!

Remember when nurses were heralded as heroes on the frontlines during the height of the COVID 19 pandemic? Remember when the social and emotional health of students and educators was prioritized? Remember. ❤️

I had a paper rejected today. A paper I am so proud of that we have been waiting to put out into the peer review world for a year. Sharing to normalize rejection. Onward!

There is a difference between listening to learn and failing to lead. Listen first, but not at the expense of responding thereafter. Someone should say something. And that someone, is all of us. #BeUnapologeticallyImpatient #Justice #Inclusion #Mindset #EmotionalIntelligence

I wish you real authentic unbridled joy, the kind of joy akin to when my first grader realized that all her clothes are a size 6/7 ❤️😂❤️😂❤️😂❤️😂

Miles is excited for school this morning! #careaboutrare #soundon #smilesformiles #phelanmcdermidsyndrome

Listening to the final cut of my #audiobook and overwhelmed with #gratitude that I have the opportunity to share my #science and #heart with the world. It's time to #BeUanpologeticallyImpatient. Audiobook arriving December 2025! #Joy #Justice #Mindset #Inclusion #EmotionalIntelligence

With #thanksgiving around the corner, and winter recess on the horizon, the time is now to lean into #SEL #Educators and #Leaders, check out these evidence-based ways to set your #students and yourself up for success ❤️ www.edweek.org/teaching-lea...

my 12 year old son: Mom, are you still doing your homework? me: Yes, a few more papers to read. my son: I just realized, being a teacher is a lot more work than being a student. And I thought writing one paper was hard!! You have to read all the papers. And then write more of them!

Tonight’s #daylightsavings. For every parent of young children that has heard someone say “oh you get an extra hour of sleep” and you’re like “No. Not my kids. That means they’ll be up an hour earlier” I see you. We’re in this together.

Thank you for the interview @npr.org www.npr.org/2025/10/23/n...

Happy Friday, #NYC It’s time to #BeUnapologeticallyImpatient

ICYMI a #conservative #politician was shot and #killed while speaking at a #Utah #university today to the backdrop of a #shooting in a Colorado #highschool. The #evidence is clear. When young people don’t learn to navigate big #emotions in healthy ways, they fall victim to #dangerous ones

There’s no #AI prompt that can save you the way #vaccines do. #AI can’t, and won’t, save you.

I am not afraid to keep on living 🤘🏻

It's #BackToSchool. ICYMI not all #school #buses are #yellow. 🚐 🚍 Don’t wait until a child is struck by a car driving illegally past a school transportation van to make this an issue you care about. www.the74million.org/article/not-... #Safety #Inclusion @the74.bsky.social

I was today years old when started recording the audiobook for #beunapologeticallyimpatient! Coming this December, narrated by yours truly, in all my imperfect and honest glory 🤘🏻! #joy #justice #inclusion #education #medicine #mindset #gratitude #EmotionalIntelligence

“There is nothing you keep, there is only your reflection” Manchester Orchestra, the silence.

Imagine what could change if it were a #presidential #priority to advance the science of learning so all students are seen, served, and safe to learn in U.S. schools. IMO that would be in our #national interest. #StudentsOverPolitics #inclusion #safety #education #SEL

The discrimination of people with #disabilities is a #nonpartisan and #global issue. The #criminalization of #inclusion and rise of the ‘R’ word threatens the livelihoods of all people with disabilities. It’s time to interrupt the narrative. Vote us into #SXSWEDU to learn how! ➡️ shorturl.at/6Eaq

I had the privilege of sitting down with Rae at #Hyperfocus Understood.org to talk about the alarming and harmful rise of the 'R' word and what science can teach us about why - and how - to interrupt it. www.understood.org/en/podcasts/... #inclusion #justice #education #policy #Disability

A truly beautiful day yesterday celebrating the release of #BeUnapologeticallyImpatient at the Yale Child Study Center! #joy #justice #inclusion #emotionalintelligence #education #mindset #psychology #medicine #disability #parenting

I am so excited to celebrate the release of #BeUnapologeticallyImpatient with the Yale community next week! New article on the story behind the book ⬇️ medicine.yale.edu/childstudy/n... #joy #justice #inclusion #parenting #education #emotionalintelligence #mindset #psychology

How can we advance the science of learning and social and emotional development in a polarized socio-political climate? Here’s what we learned during our science summit earlier this year. Learn more at lnkd.in/en3uiWJ7

Happiness is summer friday evening twilight ice cream ❤️❤️❤️

The most persistently dangerous thing for our nation’s students right now is our nation’s politics. #saveourstudents #studentsoverpolitics #BeUnapologeticallyImpatient

For all the caregivers out there who are juggling the camp schedules and all the camp needs, I see you. For all the #AI peeps out there, why haven't we solved for this with #AI yet?

Choose to love each other harder right now as an act of resistance. #BeUnapologeticallyImpatient

Good evening, DC #warpedtoureve #nokings

Today is my son Miles 13th birthday. Today is also the day I learned that the book I wrote in his honor is now also the #1 new release on Amazon in parenting children with disabilities! For the world all kids deserve ❤️ #BeUnapologeticallyImpatient #careaboutrare #smilesformiles #inclusion #joy

The media's representation of the unhealthy and devolving relationship between M and T is perhaps all the evidence necessary to justify why our country needs #SEL more than ever right now. views my own.
