📚 Summer Reading Recommendation #1

Looking for a simple way to start your mornings with more intention?

Ted's first summer reading recommendation is Poetry Changes Lives by Christopher Byrne.

This isn't your typical poetry book. Each day includes:
✨ A historical moment to reflect on
📖 A poem connected to that moment
💭 A thoughtful prompt to help you pause, reflect, and begin your day with purpose.

Sometimes the smallest habits create the biggest changes. Spending just a few minutes each morning reading and reflecting can help set the tone for the day ahead.

Have you read this book? We'd love to hear what you think!

Great school years start with great leadership.

Whether you are leading a classroom, a team, or an entire district, preparation matters.

CESA 6 supports leaders through:

📚 Professional learning
💡 Leadership development
🤝 Coaching opportunities
🌱 Resources designed for growth

The strongest leaders never stop learning.

How are you investing in your leadership this year?

08/01/2026

Leadership isn’t something we’re born knowing how to do. It’s something we learn, practice, and develop with the right tools and support.

In Go To Your Storm, Ted Neitzke challenges us to rethink how we support young people, new leaders, and even ourselves as we navigate challenges, build resilience, and grow through adversity.

We all face storms. The question is: do we recognize the strength, skills, and experiences we’ve gained from making it through them?

“You have already overcome your most difficult day.”

🚨 It’s almost here! 🚨

Go To Your Storm is launching soon! 📖🌩️

In Chapter 4, Ted Neitzke explores one powerful idea: what if the challenges we face aren’t just obstacles, but the presents life gives us?

Every storm brings something with it. A chance to grow stronger. A chance to find a new path. A chance to learn something we can share with others.

As Ted says, “It’s just rain.” The storm may feel loud, unpredictable, and difficult, but it’s also shaping who we become.

What if the biggest thing holding you back isn't the challenge in front of you... but the story you've been telling yourself?

In Chapter 3 of Go To Your Storm, Ted Neitzke challenges us to stop giving away our mental real estate and start fixing what's within our control.

✔️ Stop believing the negative narratives.
✔️ Stop worrying about what everyone else thinks.
✔️ Focus on what you can fix.
✔️ Be your authentic self.

Whether you're a student, educator, leader, parent, or simply navigating life's next challenge, this message is a reminder that growth begins when we choose to face the storm instead of avoiding it.

Watch this exclusive Chapter 3 teaser, then let us know:
What's one thing you've been putting off that it's finally time to fix?
