My experience with the Profound Ladies has been a source of support for me. Even as an older educator, the fellowship with these younger educators has been phenomenal. The monthly wellness cards and happy mail gifts always lift my spirits. I am inspired from the work I see and hear about from the other members of the group. Encouragement and a sense of belonging to a group of women who truly support each other has helped me this year adjust to both a new role and new environment.

Profound Ladies has helped me realize that I matter. Self care is the best vision of myself. Profound Ladies taught me to value myself.

Joining Profound Ladies during the pandemic was a transformative experience. The dedicated coaches provided consistent support, offering guidance in virtual teaching and emphasizing mental health. Quarterly workshop weeks and participation in education local, state, and countrywide conferences continued to enhance our skills. Profound Ladies' commitment extended beyond traditional teaching, encouraging exploration in coaching, administration, and reimagining education. I hope one day, I will have the opportunity to be a coach or positively impact others in the Profound Ladies and Education community.

I loved the coaching I got from Profound Ladies! While I was part of a TFA cohort, are there additional meetings held throughout the year with other Profound ladies members? I would love to participate in some virtually or even in person if there are some in my area that I do not know about!

The random gift from profound ladies always comes at an opportune time; right when I’m feeling down and in need of some additional support and a pick me up. I appreciate you all so much.

I feel seen when I'm seemingly invisible doing the much-needed work in education. I feel supported and poured into it when I receive monthly packages from Profound Ladies or attend a conference with some of the most incredible educators in NC. I'm even more committed and empowered to disrupt the current state of education and ensure that our stories are told, BIPOC scholars receive top notch education, and that my colleagues of color are supported. I love the Profound Ladies organization.

I have been a member of Profound Ladies for a little over a year and I have loved every minute of it! I am proud to stand with an organization that fights to disrupt systematic racism. I am proud to be with women that have the same values, morals, and ideals that I share. This organization has molded and shaped me to be an even better educator and human being! Ever since I have joined Profound Ladies I am more intentional and more aware of my impact that I have not only with my students but with other people as well. I am overjoyed that I am a part of something that is bigger than me and I'm excited to share the good news of all the work Profound Ladies has done and what they will continue to do!

I would love to connect but I am not in the area. I am in Mississippi but I am going to ask the ladies at my job to join this organization.

I joined Profound Ladies during the pandemic when teachers were still required to teach despite the challenging circumstances. With minimal guidance, we had to quickly adapt to ensure our scholars' academic and social-emotional needs were met. This required creativity and innovative thinking to engage students beyond computer screens and masks, which often meant working long hours in isolation.

Profound Ladies supported teachers like myself with virtual professional development sessions and wellness check-ins. We received coaching, and when buildings reopened, they were there to find out what we needed to succeed in our classrooms. They organized one-day conferences that allowed us to grow as educators and share knowledge with others.

With organizations like Profound Ladies, teachers of color have a safe space to share and the support they need to grow.

The beautiful friendships and the support that arises from the opportunities when we come together is unmatched. I would love for my district to invest in this.
