A Note on Connection & Trauma
Before I begin this month's newsletter, I want to acknowledge the difficulties our world is facing right now. So many are suffering, uncertain, and scared. We all need more connection in times of happiness and in times of sorrow and fear. Check on your friends and family. Hug a little tighter. Dedicate some time to process, cope, and comfort each other, even on work calls and in professional interactions. May we all find comfort, connection, relief, and a little luck ?? in the coming days.
