Welcome!
I’m Lindsey Frank, the creator of The Butterfly Within®, and I am grateful for Heart-CenterED Changemakers like you. We are here to transform education from within—ourselves, our students, our systems, and our society. It takes courageous teachers and leaders to cultivate a positive and proactive community of belonging to reach the hearts of your learning community—especially if you don’t know where to start, have tried every idea you know, feel lost in a negative spiral, or are beyond overwhelmed.
The Butterfly Within® empowers educators and leaders who are ready to transform their school’s climate by creating a courageous, calm, and connected community through mindfulness-based learning.
Take your first step to create a courageous, calm, and connected classroom and life by “Expanding Your Comfort Zone”.
