Welcome to the Launchpad!

May this message and good news be fuel to your fire of purpose, care, and hope.

If there's one durable skill I've noticed as non-negotiable, it's resilience. I refuse to call non-technical skills "soft" anymore. These are the skills that help us endure, and there is nothing soft about them. They take years to cultivate and hone.

Being reminded of joy's role in resilience made me grateful for how I've spent my month, dancing the line between effort and play. Joy is a non-negotiable for me. All work and no play is a plan for burnout. On my busiest days, it might be a 15-minute dance break. When I carve out time for joy, it looks like conversations with friends I admire, talking until 2 a.m.

If you're interested in bringing more joy into your day, check out the Midweek Reset episode below. We did an excellent activity that lit up all the participants in last week's session.

Go Deeper The Relax & Remix journal: An appreciation tool Abraham Hick's shares that appreciation is one of the highest frequencies of emotion. So instead of a graditude section in the morning pages of the Relax & Remix Journal, there's a section for appreciation. What do you appreciate? What does that thing you apprciate remind you about yourself? This is a reminder that the world is a mirror, and it's important to recognize how we embody many of the qualities we value in others Create your rhythm. Track your truth. Remix your reality.
