Ryan (@worldsokayestschoolpsch) and Danielle, a school psychologist and a BCBA, dive into their work bestie/work sibling bond—basically, their secret weapon for surviving the wild world of special education. They chat about how having a partner in crime helps them tackle stress, share laughs, and commiserate over the daily chaos.

They also sing the praises of a larger squad of work besties who truly get the struggles and triumphs of their field. Who knew group texts and memes could be such powerful tools for support?

Ryan and Danielle stress the importance of open-mindedness and finding common ground with colleagues, no matter how wild their haircuts might be. They wrap it up with sage advice for the next generation: nurture those work besties and don’t forget to set some boundaries—because even besties need a break from the chaos!

Today's episode features Reverend Naeemah (@naeemahlife), AGAIN! She offers so many insights we could not fit all the content in one episode.

So she is back and this time she offers a refreshing perspective on the concept of work besties. Instead of actively seeking out a close work friend, she recommends a more organic approach: let these connections come to you naturally. Her advice is to trust the process and remain open to the natural evolution of workplace relationships.
