SEL
Core Series
Once upon a time, you became a principal.
You had a vision—to create a thriving school where students felt safe, engaged, and ready to learn. But soon, the reality set in. Your days filled with discipline issues, staff burnout, and the constant pressure to meet academic benchmarks.
You knew there had to be a better way.
Today, the landscape of education is shifting.
We now understand that a calm, connected school culture isn’t a luxury—it’s the foundation for academic success. Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) isn’t just another initiative; it’s the key to reducing stress, increasing engagement, and transforming behavior from the inside out.
For years, SEL has been fragmented—scattered across random workshops, disconnected strategies, and one-off PD sessions that never quite stick.
You’ve pieced together bits and pieces, hoping to create something sustainable. But without a clear, proven framework, it’s overwhelming.
No one has put it all under one roof—until now.
The SEL Core Series is the result of years of experience, real-world strategies, and research-backed methods that work.
This isn’t just another training—it’s a guided process to help you and your staff build a school where calm and connection become the norm—not the exception.

Hey there, I'm Lana.
Many years ago, I faced one of the biggest challenges of my life—losing everything in a devastating fire. It forced us to rebuild, not just my school, but my purpose. Through resilience, mindfulness, and the very SEL strategies I teach, we turned adversity into a new beginning.
People told me transforming school culture through SEL was too idealistic, that burnout was just part of the job. But I refused to accept that.
Instead of wondering what if, I showed up every day, doing the work to create real change. I co-founded Unlocking SEL, wrote a book that’s helping schools nationwide, and now travel the country empowering educators to lead with empathy, balance, and purpose.
I believe healthy, happy schools start with thriving educators.
If you're ready to stop running on empty, reconnect with your passion, and truly transform your school, let’s do this together.
This is your time, isn't it? Come & join me!
Let's get going to create the school you have always dreamed of.
