Hi Duane! Will the gathering today remain private or will it eventually become public? It's ok if you don't know.

Hey Ann! Great question! I wanted to start with it as way to be able to directly connect and get to know those of you have done so much to support what I do, but ideally I would absolutely love to make this available to the public if all goes well!

Great wisdom in this perfectly timed piece, Duane. Almost a third through a rocky January.

January has left something to be desired so far, and yet there have been a few small glimmers of light soaked joy and connection that it’s making me believe there’s still room for possibility.
