The Smile: 11/21/2024

 

Hi friend, Happy Thursday. It’s been a challenging time for many of us, and it’s okay to feel the weight of everything happening. During difficult moments, it’s important to find comfort in the things that ground us. For me, doing a jigsaw puzzle or spending time with loved ones pulls me away from the negativity I see on the news or social media. We’d love to know: What brings you the most comfort during difficult times? Take a moment to share your answer in today’s survey—it’s a small way to reflect and connect.
