Compassionately and directly interrupt educational inequities


You want your school or organization to be an equitable place of learning, but you recognize that there are many obstacles to address. You see inequitable practices, you hear people expressing problematic beliefs, and you recognize the broader systemic challenges. You wonder, "Where to start?"

This workshop provides you with the essential knowledge to recognize educational inequities, with the language to name and describe those inequities, and with the skills to have the conversations to interrupt those inequities. Building off of Elena Aguilar's books, Arise: The Art of Transformational Coaching (2024) and Coaching for Equity (2020), you'll receive additional tools and resources to help you plan for and have conversations that result in behavior and belief change.

  • Coaches

    New and experienced coaches, managers, teacher leaders, and mentors

  • Leaders

    Leaders who want to use coaching strategies to support and develop the adults on their teams

  • Educators

    Educators in all positions who work in public, charter, and private schools

How You'll Spend Your Time


Part One: Self-Paced Prework - 8 hours minimum

Prior to your workshop sessions, your learning begins with a self-paced exploration of foundational knowledge and tools found in Coaching for Equity and Arise: The Art of Transformational Coaching. 


Part Two: Live Learning - 6 learning blocks, 12 hours total over 3 days

This workshop is a 3-day learning experience, each day consisting of two 2-hour learning blocks with an hour break in between. You will come together with a Bright Morning facilitator in community to process your learning, explore your identity, build context for systems of oppression, and engage in small group discussion and coaching practice. Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) participants will have the option of BIPOC affinity breakout groups. 

This workshop is highly interactive, allowing you the ability to quickly build skills and synthesize learning through role-play practice, and discussion.
