This weekend, I arrived in beautiful Santa Fe, the oldest capital in the US, to embark on a new adventure! Joining the Dent The Future community has truly been a highlight of my year. It’s a strong way to finish 2024 and set my intentions as I look forward to 2025. I’m inspired by this incredible community of forward-thinkers dedicated to "denting" the future and bringing positive impact to our communities. Yesterday was filled with inspiring conversations, culminating in an unforgettable jam session featuring guitar beats and a flute performance by Cady Coleman, the astronaut who played this flute aboard the space station! Incredibly excited for the new beginnings and meeting new people….. and the future that we are shaping #SantaFe #DentCommunity #Inspiration #NewAdventures #PositiveImpact #PoweringConnections #AdAstraConnects

Knowing sign language is more than just learning a new skill; it’s about fostering inclusivity and building stronger connections across diverse communities. By understanding and using sign languages, we contribute to a more accessible and empathetic world. ✅Start with Basics: Begin with essential signs like greetings and common phrases. Familiarity with these can help you engage more confidently. ✅Practice Regularly: Consistency is key. Set aside a few minutes each day to practice signs, and it’ll soon become second nature. ✅Use Visual Cues: Sign languages are highly visual. Pay attention to facial expressions and hand shapes to enhance your understanding. ✅Engage with the Community: Join local Deaf events or online groups to practice and learn from native signers. This International Day of Sign Languages, let's celebrate the power of sign languages and commit to learning and promoting them.🤘 #DeafGain #DeafAwareness #ASL #SignLanguage #LanguageServices #AdAstraConnects #PoweringConnection #AmericanSignLanguage
