Have you heard the news? 👀💚

We’ve just announced something new for this fall - our Self-Reg in Practice: Fall 2026 Webinar Series!

I’ll be hosting seven Wednesday evening conversations with some wonderful Self-Reg colleagues, exploring what looks like in the very real, very human challenges happening across early years, schools and education.

We’ll be talking about kindergarten, school leadership, educational assistants, elementary and high school, the early years - and we even have a session en français! I’m really looking forward to these conversations.

But I have a question: did you hear about it before seeing this post? 😊

If not, make sure you’re signed up for The MEHRIT Centre newsletter. It’s one of the best ways to hear what we’ve been working on and what’s coming next - new webinars and learning opportunities, upcoming events, free resources, blogs and more.

There’s lots happening this fall, and I’d love to have you with us. 💚

And if the webinar series has caught your eye, you can join us for one session for $30 CAD or all seven for $150 CAD, beginning September 23.

Stay Tuned for more info!

Think of something that feels stressful for you but seems to bother someone else very little. Or something that doesn’t bother you but seems difficult for someone else. Where do you see that in your own life?
