After the quarantine years, a lot of us have forgotten how good it feels to be in community with others. A lot of us have even forgotten how to do it. It's kind of like when you are sick for an extended period of time that it becomes your new normal and you don't know what it feels like to be healthy until the sickness goes away and then you remember.

Do you remember what it's like to feel seen? To be in a group where people get you? Or what it's like for someone to train with you when you are trying to prepare for a triathlon? Doesn't it feel good to share in a commonality with others?

In this week's episode, I am reminding all of us how crucial it is for us to be in community with each other so that we can grow and evolve in uplifting and unexpected ways. So that we might thrive. Because, after all, isn't that why we are here?
