RecenterED
Ireland Cohort
Professional Development as Pilgrimage

This is far more than professional development. This is a year-long leadership pilgrimage for educators and school leaders to recenter you to your work, your purpose, and your deepest humanity
The RecenterED Ireland Cohort is a year-long professional growth journey for both educators and school leaders—beginning with a 6-day pilgrimage through the sacred landscapes of Ireland and continuing through monthly coaching within your cohort throughout the school year
A true retreat from the noise, a chance to rediscover your rhythms, and an invitation to deep rest and genuine restoration
What to Expect on the Pilgrimage
In this experience, you will:
Walk ancient paths and pause in monastic ruins, rediscovering rhythms of rest and renewal.
Engage in reflective conversations on purpose, vision, and strategy.
Share meals and fireside discussions with peers who understand the joys and challenges of teaching and leading.
Enter a trusted community of practice that continues throughout the year.

A Year of Transformational Growth within a Community of Practice
The Pilgrimage Is Only The Beginning
Throughout the school year, this community of practice continues along two paths:
One for educators and one for school leaders
School Leaders: Individual coaching, peer coaching circles, and strategic problem-solving to strengthen clarity, courage, and vision.
Educators: Reflective practice, collaborative inquiry, and renewed rhythms for teaching with creativity, purpose, and sustainability.
Both groups share the pilgrimage in Ireland—gathering as one community—and then travel parallel but distinct professional development paths for the rest of the year that includes:
Six virtual peer coaching circles – Trusted spaces to process challenges, share insight, and stay grounded in supportive rhythms.
Individual coaching sessions – Personalized guidance to help you translate inspiration into practical strategies.
Collaborative problem-solving – Together, we tackle the real dilemmas of teaching and leadership and discover fresh solutions together
Ongoing practices of renewal – Learn how to weave rest and restoration into your daily leadership life.
Inspired strategy - Practical solutions to help you lead an innovative, creative, and engaging learning community
What you’ll walk away with
Restored energy and courage to educate with clarity and compassion
A renewed rhythm that sustains both your life and your leadership
A clear vision and strategy to move your work forward
A trusted community of practice to offer encouragement, perspective, and accountability
This is not another conference or seminar.
This is a year-long personal and professional formation experience providing inspired strategy and lasting community for you, your school, and the people you serve
What makes this different:
A true retreat. Sacred landscapes that invite rest, reflection, and renewal.
Restored rhythms. Learn to operate from a pace that sustains your life—not just your work.
Community of practice. Walk alongside colleagues who share wisdom, encouragement, and accountability.
Coaching for clarity. 1-on-1 and peer coaching to align your vision, purpose, and strategy.
