Professionals across disciplines are required to participate in professional development. However, the quality of these experiences are not always high and the goals of the experiences are often unclear. In education specifically, K-12 teachers participate in professional development both for personal growth reasons and because of professional requirements. Using hermeneutic phenomenological case study, this research investigated the potential outcomes of self-designed, extraordinary professional development. The participants were five secondary STEM or social studies teachers who successfully applied for a grant from the private, nonprofit organization Fund for Teachers. Each teacher was treated as his or her own bounded case, and then cross-case analysis was done to create an invariant structure of the essence of designing one's own extraordinary professional development. Findings suggest that such holistic professional learning experiences produce positive outcomes for participants including increased confidence in themselves, passion for their content, renewed interest in teaching, and increased professional participation in education outside of the classroom. Thematic analysis revealed six themes as a result of designing one's own professional development: passion, renewal, authenticity, confidence, inspiration, and validation.
