From here, the most important thing we can do is stay resilient. This is a marathon, not a race. We have to care for ourselves when we aren’t caring for our communities.

Do you have a word for 2019? I’ve always been into New Year’s and “resolutions” or as I prefer to call them “affirmations”. I relish the chance to reflect and renew my mindset. I recognize that you don’t have to do this at the beginning of a New Year, and thus, I also take time […]
