Stretch, yoga, take a walk, knit, draw, create something...

Cook! Take a bath! Hug on my dog :) ...

I wish I spoke a second language...

I'm a really good skiier and figure skater. I'm an artist and writer.

I've written a book of short stories and have been working on another over the past couple of years. I'm always creating something... (in the middle of knitting a blanket right now :) ).

looking for a donut... :)

Remind me to drink some water or take a deep breath! :)

Pushed a child on a swing and she went flying off it, landed on her back.

Never pushed a body part again - only from the seat or chains!

I might inwardly balk in the moment as I catch my balance, but I always deeply consider and appreciate feedback to understand how I can improve or be more effective.

Motivating, clarifying conversations! and COFFEE!

Self awareness is my superpower, and lends to my favorite quote: "The more we know ourselves, the more we know everyone." It's easy for me to accept humans for who they are, where they're at. I'm genuinely interested and fascinated by everyone! :)

I mean of course we all need a paycheck and I love to feel valued as well... but what really motivates me is creating authentic connections and doing good in the world, for the world. Enjoying this human experience as much as possible motivates me and supporting one another along the way.

Especially in a remote environment because we don't often "see" each other, I love reaching out on occasion to colleagues to just check in and say hi, I appreciate you! That said, I welcome any occasion for a colleague to reach out and do the same! i.e. Hope you're well, have a nice day! :)
