Started running alone. Just me, the miles, and a reason to keep moving.

Somewhere along the way, I found more than progress I found a community. People who push each other, show up for each other, and make every mile mean a little more. Grateful to be a part of such a great community.

Still my race. Just not running it alone anymore. “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” — Proverbs 27:17 by @john.st.onge

Run with purpose. 🏃‍♂️💨

It’s bigger than the miles. It’s about movement, community, and surrounding yourself with people pushing toward something better.

Great run with @runthiscityrunclub . Every mile has a purpose.

Building pathways, one experience at a time. 🏗️

There’s something powerful about giving the next generation an opportunity to step onto a jobsite, experience the industry firsthand, and see where a career in the trades can take them.

Exposure creates opportunity — and sometimes all it takes is one experience to open a new door.

If it wasn’t for struggles you wouldn’t be as strong as you are today. God is always building you up, even when it feels like he is breaking you. ✝️🙏#runforpurpose taken in Lynch/van Otterloo YMCA by @john.st.onge

This weekend was such a great weekend celebrating two of my colleagues. One colleague has officially began her campaign for School Committee. She is an academic leader, community centric , and mentor. My other colleague had wrote a book, this book is recognizing culture and traditional. I am grateful to have been a part of both of these events this weekend. by @john.st.onge

In lieu of CTE month , I decided to join in on this trend. Career Education has been astronomical in developing my personal growth and career. Trades from culinary to carpentry to building relationships with industry leaders. From creating programs that create an inclusive environment. by @john.st.onge

People have often asked me why education? Why Workforce Development?

Education is about providing all an opportunity to explore their own curiosities and discovering their own path, creating connections. I myself was not a student that could sit in a traditional academic classroom and fully comprehend. I wanted to take the chance to provide growth not only in the community but individuals. I wanted to provide support, connection and create a passion that resonates within individuals, who also struggle in traditional learning. Learning trades and skill does not mean you aren’t college ready , it creates opportunities for you to learn more and discover more. Trades can empower others to reach further and truly embrace their potential. by @john.st.onge
