Update from Stacey

Thank you for attending our All Staff meeting last week. I appreciated the conversation, and I especially enjoyed seeing the chats about what currently brings you joy. I've had a rough start to the year on a personal front (all is well, just very stressful) and taking time to think about what brings me joy is really important. I have been reflecting on what parts of my job bring me the most joy and making sure I build that into my week. I really enjoy work that leads to a specific work product—something that I write or present. I think that work is a nice contrast to my meeting heavy work that is less tangible.

In my personal life, I realized I really missed performing music, and I have joined a concert band again. I play flute in the Star of the North Concert Band, and I absolutely love it. Music and group performance is magical! I hope you are finding time for joy in your work and your personal life as well.
