Shelf & screen: Three things I’m reading/watching

Posted on March 1, 2025March 2, 2025 by Emilia C. Bell

Lately, working through my inboxes feels like it’s just bookmarking a lot of links with things I’d like to read/watch. Those emails then get added to a professional development folder. Realistically, I won’t get to go through it any time soon. Emails aside, one thing I do enjoy about having a few different projects on…

Posted on November 10, 2024November 10, 2024 by Emilia C. Bell

Last year, I wrote a reflective end-of-year blog post about embracing the co- in co-lead. I didn’t anticipate making a yearly reflection a habit, and I’m probably not keen on that.
