      <image:caption>The stories of our daughters in Nepal do not end at their rescue. As our daughters walk the Freedom Pathway, they are transformed from victims, to survivors, to daughters and eventually into leaders that will have an impact on their communities for generations to come. Every person they interact with is part of their ripple effect which will impact the lives of thousands of others. Thank you for making an impact through the restored lives of our daughters.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Read - A New Chapter: Becoming a (Paper) Notebook Person - The Table of Contents</image:title>
      <image:caption>It’s important for me to know how to find things easily. Fortunately, this notebook has a small circle at the bottom of each page to add a number, facilitating a Table of Contents. The little diamonds you see beside some of the listings show the presence of action items. If the diamond is filled, that means the action item is complete! Otherwise, I know to go back to that page for unfinished business.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The coolest part of a bullet journal is the visualization potential. The one way I have explored that is through tracking the number of virtual meetings I have within a day. I did not make the best choice in color scheme (I was trying to go for heatmap style) but we’ll see how it turns out at the end of the year.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Read - A New Chapter: Becoming a (Paper) Notebook Person - Other Action Item Mechanisms</image:title>
      <image:caption>Action items are denoted with a red box within notes. Then: ·        If they are complete, they get crossed off. ·        If they get transferred to another tracking mechanism or moved on to the next step, they get filled with a smaller box (and are considered complete in terms of the notebook’s purpose). ·        If they are cancelled or no longer necessary, they are filled with a hexagon. This allows for me to not have too many open issues in the notebook and maintain that feeling of completion and control I so desperately chase.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Condition: A book that is first in a series Rating: +0.5 Review: I had to listen to this as an audiobook at 1.75x speed and it was over 30 hours long! A pretty standard fantasy book – so worth the read if you like that kind of thing.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Condition: A book written before the author turned 21 (for 2021) Rating: +0.75 Review: I started reading the physical book and switched to the audio book. My favorite part was how the narrator did the dragon’s voice. It seemed to follow the tropes of a standard fantasy novel and I think it was written well enough - but not enough to capture my long-term interest.</image:caption>

This was supposed to be a short novella but I felt like the protagonist wouldn’t stop repeating herself. Perhaps it was because I listened to it as an audiobook, I was especially susceptible to noticing that.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Read - Reading Challenge 2021 Results - Measure What Matters John Doerr</image:title>
      <image:caption>Condition: A book about someone who is living your dream Rating: +1 Review: The OKR process is such an important tool, and this book shows how several companies have used it to their benefit. However, when I finished reading the book, I did not actually feel like I actually understood the process. It has taken me a lot of additional exploration and conversations to get to a point where I’m beginning to feel like I know what I’m doing.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Condition: A debut book Rating: +1.5 Review: This book was so powerful and carries that abstract feeling of despair that is so hard to explain to someone who doesn’t understand. It captures so much so accurately – but reality is so painful, it’s hard to give this a higher rating.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Condition: A book by two or more people Rating: +2 Review: This book was so easy to read and had a nice little story. I loved the protagonist and how she thought about things. The ups and downs of the plot and unexpected ending were all icing.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Condition: A book that is narrative non-fiction Rating: +2 Review: A rough, but fascinating, read especially since I read it so soon after Girl A. I have both narratives crossed in my mind. I feel so proud of Tara but horrified at how abusive and dangerous people can be so protected by a community.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Condition: A book about fame Rating: +2 Review: It certainly lived up to the condition. I really enjoyed Evelyn’s story, however, the parts with the journalist felt poorly written. Still worth the read if you like reading about the dirty realities of Hollywood.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Condition: A book that was published posthumously Rating: +2.5 Review: This author’s voice was unique – in a young, precocious, authentic kind of way. I think the context provided in the foreword by her professor and about her untimely death also provided an extra layer of depth to this collection of short stories.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Condition: A book with a one-word title Rating: +2 Review: I didn’t know what to expect when I picked this book up – but it was fascinating. It was hard to read about the terrible traumas and abuse. There is some controversy around the accuracy of this book though, so read at your own discretion.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Condition: A book about music Rating: +3 Review: Informative and witty, I have recommended this book to so many people.

Becky Brandon (neé Bloomwood) is the funniest fictional person in the world. I love the little crazy stories she tells herself to justify her behavior and the ridiculous situations she gets into. Hilarious and sweet, this book is all sorts of wonderful.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Welcome back Warriors, I want to commend you for how hard you've worked this year! You have really made a difference for the Well-Beings and you should be proud of yourselves. With that being said, you have one final mission of 2022 and I know you're going to rock it! The Well-Beings have a habit of saying yes when they should say no. This ultimately leads to them depleting themselves trying to help a friend when they really don't have the time or resources which inevitability causes resentment and eventually the relationship can crumble. We need your help to save them from this cycle of misplaced responsibility using these 3 simple questions.  We all believe in your Warrior and we'll see you next year!

It's your job to uncover these relationships because they're holding the Well-Being's back from reaching their ultimate potential.  It might not be easy but I believe in you.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>WELCOME BACK WARRIOR!! We are so happy you decided to join us again on our quest to save the Well-Beings. Last year, you proved your fortitude during the Battle of the 7 Dimensions of Wellness. The battle may be won but the war isn't over. It is time to take your training to the next level.   The Evil Stressors of Cortisolo have strong roots. Their resilience comes from their secrecy and hiding behind the feelings of shame and taboo. For this season of training, we encourage you to join us on the Road Less Travelled and engage in conversations on topics that most like to avoid and try out some practices that will force the stressors out and make you stronger.   How will you find them? Here's a hint: you might want to venture into uninhabited territory. Be brave Warrior, the Well-Beings are counting on you. Produced and edited by Salimah Ismail.

Think about all the sounds you make and all the sounds you hear throughout the day. Sounds can make us laugh, calm our minds, make us angry, or make us dance. It's all about being intentional.  Surround yourself with soothing music during your work day or make yourself giggle by screaming "bubbles." It's up to you Warriors. So...how will you use sound today?

We're talking skills. We're talking distance. What do these terms have to do with wellness? EVERYTHING! Let's say you're given a list of tasks to complete in any order, have you ever thought about why you chose one task over another? Let's say that your peer received the same list and chose to complete a different task first, why is that? Your talents and skills are encrypted in your DNA and it's up to you to determine how far you go with them. What are your relative strengths and who compliments them? This is your task this month Warriors, good luck. Produced and edited by Salimah Ismail.

      <image:caption>Warriors, it's already April! Can you believe it? This year is already flying by. We're entering month 4 of our Hummingbird journey. Hummingbirds are tetrachromatic while humans are only trichromatic which means that hummingbirds can see a much broader color spectrum than humans can. This month we're asking ourselves, am I seeing the world through a trichromatic lens or a tetrachromatic lens?    In other words, are you seeing the world based solely on your own insights, knowledge, and experiences? Or, are you honoring the wisdom, ideas, and opinions that come to you from others? This month is all about tapping into your own tetrachromacy, whatever that means to you. What have your learned from others? What insights have you given to others? Be open to whatever comes your way this month, Warrior. And enjoy yourself! Produced and edited by Salimah Ismail.
