At the end of a session, I felt like I didn't get a lot done, which happens all the time because, hello, we're human.

And my focus mate partner looked at me in the camera and said, and you showed up.

And that's what matters.

I have the people that I get to see every day nearly who are showing me their cats eating their crunchies.

And there's a lot of sort of, I guess you could call commiseration or moral support around things that we're working on in the world and, you know, changes that we're trying to, you know, affect or impact.

And so it's just so special to be able to, you know, connect with people in every corner of the globe and support each other.

But even if I don't connect with people in person, it's just really special feeling like you're not alone in what you're striving to do.

For so many of us, even if we're working in office settings, we can feel really isolated.
