Three Perfektly Imperfekt Broken Shells
What is a Broken Shell
This is the story of a family turned upside down by cancer. From diagnosis, to treatment, to career loss, to loss of friends, to a love that was too fractured to ultimately survive. Broken Shells is NOT the story of being Broken, but rather embracing our Perfekt Imperfektions.
In 2024 Broken Shells was honored as the IIBA Most Inspirational book of the year!

Jon on the Education Evolution Podcast
Saying Yes to the Whys and Why Nots
After a nearly 30-year career in education, Jon became a school superintendent in March 2020…just days before COVID hit and schools had to make a big left turn. Then a stage 3 cancer diagnosis changed the trajectory of everything for Jon.
Jon has created something out of adversity and I can see how it will inspire others to do the same. Listen in to this incredible story.
