As we come to the end of December, where do we start the reflections on the trials and tribulations of 2020? It’s all been so/too much! We have collectively been forced to deal with health, economic, social injustice, and political crises in just a few months.

We will forever be changed by the events that occurred in the year 2020.

But…. Let us not leave 2020 behind without also appreciating the learning and growth that this year has forced upon and gifted us. The intrepid amongst us who have stood together and against social injustices.  The supermen and superwomen working in healthcare who are being recognized for the heroes they have always been. Those small business owners who were able to quickly spin in response to the pandemic and evolve their business structure and mission.
