The Self Care Network LLC  has promoted Lucas James as the "Head of Mess Development". Lucas is a 3 year old goldendoodle whose favorite job task is pulling every toy out of the toy bin to find the perfect one to play with. After work, he can be found in the kitchen monitoring the floor as his quest to become known as the World’s Hungriest Goldendoodle.

In his free time, Lucas loves to explore the world with his mouth, give kisses, and playing with his friends.  As an avid foodie he definitely lives up to his title “Head of Mess Development” even if he is often redirected to drop it, or leave it. When asked how he felt about the promotion, Lucas said " I am excited for the opportunity to tackle any mess that falls on the floor, I have my nose ready to sniff out any spills and I guarentee it will be cleaned up in under 1 minute."

While some applicants require hours of training in order to learn and master the skills it takes to get a job done right, others are born with it.  As the head of our cleaning services, every bone on the floor, every spilled glass of water, Lucas will lick it up.

Abby Anderson  supports leaders committed to implementing equity and belonging practices into their work and lives. 

​

For over a decade, Abby was executive director of an organization with a mission to end the criminalization of children. Years into her tenure leading an organization focused on issues that primarily impact black and brown people, Abby realized that her whiteness, and not being a directly-impacted person, caused knowledge gaps in her leadership, sometimes resulting in her perpetuating inequity. That led to lots of personal work. It also contributed to an organization-wide effort to examine internal policies and practices and co-create an evolved, youth/adult partnership model that centers and supports the expertise of directly-impacted youth.

​

Through one-on-one coaching, consulting, training, and facilitating, Abby supports leaders at all levels, with a particular focus on her white peers learning to de-center their and the culture’s whiteness. Abby’s role is to walk alongside partners, providing space dedicated to processing, incorporating, and implementing equity and belonging leadership tools.

​

Abby is a certified coach through the Academy of Creative Coaching and a Certified Diversity-to-Belonging Facilitator through Veritas Culture.
