In this heart-to-heart episode, Lisa opens up about what it’s like to feel isolated as a special educator and how to build school culture even when you’re the only one in your role. She shares practical strategies for creating visibility, connecting with general education staff, and finding your people — both inside and outside your building. From hallway hellos to collaborative projects, you’ll learn how small, intentional actions can change how you feel about your school and how your school sees you. If you’ve ever felt invisible, misunderstood, or alone in your work, this episode is for you.
