This past week I had the honor of joining the BLMA Lit Circle at Washington High School, where a group of brilliant young men engaged deeply with The Invisible Backpack. Hearing them read aloud, ask thoughtful questions, and connect pieces of the story to their own experiences reminded me why I wrote this book in the first place.

Literacy. Healing. Leadership. Voice.
These young men embodied all of that in one room.

A huge thank you to Angilique and the entire BLMA team for creating such an intentional space for our kids to grow — academically, emotionally, and as young leaders. Your commitment to SEL and literacy is changing lives.

I walked away inspired, grateful, and excited to continue the Invisible Backpack journey.

I can’t wait to hear the thoughts of these young people once they finish the book! 📚💫

✨ What an honor! ✨

This past week I had the privilege of serving as the keynote speaker for Milwaukee Public Schools’ Back-to-School Kickoff with their dedicated team of social workers.

My presentation, “Owning Your Why: The Power of Purpose in Social Work,” focused on helping us reconnect with the driving force behind our work, even when the challenges feel heavy. We explored:

🎒 What’s in your backpack? – the tools, experiences, and strengths that equip you.
🧭 Your Why is Your Compass – guiding you through the difficult moments.
⚖️ When Your Why Doesn’t Align – giving yourself permission to realign and grow.

It was powerful to be in a room full of professionals committed to advocating, protecting, and uplifting our youth. Social work is not just a career—it’s a calling.

Thank you, Milwaukee Public Schools, for the opportunity to pour into those who pour so much into others. 💛

Over the weekend, I had the incredible honor of receiving the 2025 Secretary’s Putting Families First Award, presented by Secretary Jeff Pertl of the Wisconsin Department of Children and Families.

What made this moment even more meaningful was who was in the room—so many of the colleagues, mentors, and partners I’ve worked with and worked for throughout the years. To be recognized by the very people who have witnessed this journey up close… it’s a feeling that’s hard to put into words.

This award honors the heart of my life’s work: supporting children, empowering families, and helping to transform child welfare systems to be more compassionate, collaborative, and family-centered.

I share this recognition with my phenomenal team at Revive, every young person still carrying an invisible backpack, and every advocate committed to driving change in child welfare.
