Reflecting on 2023

What a year it has been! After ten years living abroad, it was time to return home for my family and I. It was time to reconnect with loved ones and the desert. And it was time to grow my consultancy. Moving back to Arizona allowed me to shift into full time consulting and coaching. It was also a time to do some inward looking and dreaming.

With a shift into full time consultancy Beth Puma Consulting had the opportunity to grow. I worked with more schools, conducted more workshops, coached more educators, and launched the MLL Ecosystem Project. I was able to work with educational organizations that I believed in like Global Online Academy and The Educators Collaborative. These are organizations where I could contribute to and be challenged by.  For that I am grateful.

2023 was a year of change for me. Change is hard and I felt all the bumps, scrapes, and tears that come with it.  Yet, change brings growth and for that I am happy. I am looking forward to what 2024 has in store.  What do I know for sure? I feel more determined than ever to continue building systems where our multilingual students can thrive. Stay tuned!
