How has this made a difference in your 2025?
I work with a progressive Christian church, though I am not religious; a wonderful political candidate whose party I usually do not vote for; a school that trains women to win elections; and others. I learn from these clients as I work with them. It has been incredibly enriching to get to know other viewpoints and appreciate those who have them.
What do you wish others knew about what you’re thankful for?
Working with people who see things a bit differently humanizes those on "the other side" and its the only way to better understand each other. I encourage people to have the courage to step outside their bubbles, go to events they may not have attended, and have conversations not to win, but to better understand.
