We did it. We made it through (an admittedly not-too-horrible) winter and are on the other side. As the academic year wraps up for those of us who are beholden to it, I hope we are all able to take a breath, acknowledge the passage of time, enjoy the weather, and invest in the things that are most meaningful and nourishing at this time of year. Hope to see you at a virtual or in-person event soon - there is one coming up this Tuesday that is not to be missed (more info below)!
