I am a public academic working in schools since 1995.
In 2007, I received my MSW from the University of Denver and began working as a school social worker in the greater Denver area. I became passionate about mindfulness and teacher self-care as essential interventions in response to school violence and student death by suicide.
I define self-care as caring about yourself enough to notice your thoughts and the story they tell; then choosing skills, tools, and strategies to shift limiting scripts. I have over 25 years of experience with all grade levels across three states: Illinois, California, and Colorado.
Over the last ten years, I have created several curriculum concepts that include the checkIN and Movement.Breath.Kindness. In June 2020, I published an ebook titled: The Story I Tell. How to make the Age of Disruption work for you. In addition to the ebook, there is a companion eworkbook that makes it simple to transfer the skills, tools, and strategies to a classroom or coaching session. Storyitell is now available in paperback at Amazon.com. In January 2021 I published a second ebook: Something More. Connecting to the pulse of a Shared Humanity. Somethingmore is currently available to download for Kindle at Amazon.com. This January 2022 I published a third ebook: abetterway. Using Inner Resources to Create Your Own Algorithm.
I publish a weekly blog at sallyseifferco.blog that is posted on Sally & Sifer Facebook Page. I publish weekly content on Instagram @sallysifer, as well as visual content that complements blog posts on the Sally & Sifer YouTube channel, TikTok, and Instagram Reels.
Summer 2022 began an 8-week teaching series that began June 4 on @sallysifer Facebook Page. Additionally, 2022 8-week teaching series can be found on the FB page beginning on January 24 and April 4. A recent 8-week series focused on The Story I Tell began on January 17, 2023.

Because I didn’t blog last weekend, I neglected to share the animal spirit theme for the month: crocodile. For me, the main takeaway, or ‘power’ in this card can be whittled to one word: wait. If you are interested in more context regarding the ‘animal spirit card’ you can read the post deck. I suppose…
