In 6 months, it will be 2022. Did 2021 even happen? I'm still processing 2020. About a year ago today, I packed up my office in New Hampshire. I had only been there a handful of times since we were sent to work from home in March 2020. The whole building was quiet and our…
There is something really inspiring about seeing everyone get outside and be happy and healthy after the year we've all had.
