There comes a point in a long career where one either settles in and accepts the status quo or becomes unsettled and hungry to reimagine the ways things are. We are four early childhood professionals who found ourselves longing deeply for shared learning opportunities in our field that held something more than the status quo: more connection, collaboration, and a gateway to authentic, contextual dialogue on relevant and sustaining issues. Our longing carried us to each other, and launched us on a journey to reimagine professional learning.
