Dear community,
This year has been quite a ride! On the personal side, as many of you know, my family has spent time living and working remotely from: Puerto Rico; India; Mexico; and New Mexico. We’ve learned so much about nomad life with a toddler, and have loved seeing these new experiences through our Rumi’s eyes.
On the professional front, I settled into a deeply meaningful consulting portfolio focused on providing strategic advice in the equity and well-being spaces — and I’ve been privileged to build communities that enable well-being — like this one.
I want to thank each and every one of you for being on this journey with me, and to remind you, this is your community. I hope we can continue co-creating this space to be meaningful and to meet your well-being needs.
With this in mind, please very briefly reply to this email to let me know:
