Envisioning Possibilities
Relationships with Friends
Building and nurturing friendships is like tending to a garden – it takes some care and a lot of heart. Start by planting the seeds of connection through shared interests and inside jokes. Water them with laughter and good times, and watch your bond grow stronger. Cultivate trust by being there when they need a listening ear or a partner in crime. Sprinkle in some spontaneity with surprise hangouts or adventures. Don’t forget to weed out misunderstandings with open communication and understanding. And just like a garden, friendships need regular attention; so, make time to catch up, reminisce, or simply chill together. With a little sunshine of positivity and a sprinkle of kindness, you’ll have a flourishing garden of friendship in no time.

Pivot with Purpose
Where in your work or life are you clinging to an outdated strategy? What might need a pivot?
