Accelerating action and digital subtraction ??

Hey there! International Women’s Day is tomorrow, and while it’s certainly an occasion for celebration, it’s also a reminder to push for change. This year’s theme is all about speeding up action toward gender equality – which, at the rate we’re going, will take until 2158 to achieve according to the World Economic Forum. So let's step on the gas, get informed, spread the word, and find productive ways to spur change.

Another noteworthy event this weekend is the Global Day of Unplugging, an opportunity to put down our devices and improve tech habits. I’ve included an article below on bringing unplugging practices into our workplaces (yes, it is possible!), as well as a helpful guide to work-life balance.
