🇺🇸 Election season reminds me how challenging it can be to honor my beliefs while holding space for others. Grateful for resources like Almost Doing Good, Nonviolent Communication, and Braving the Wilderness to help me navigate compassion and connection. One day at a time. 💛

🌈 At a recent conference, I wore a rainbow pin and attended the "You Belong Ice Cream Social" (with donuts! 🍩). Rainbows show I'm a safe person and invite others to be themselves. In my work and friendships, I value: • Kindness • Growth • Authenticity #PrideAllYear
