~Today's Confidence Nugget~ There's power in community. What does community mean to you? We can choose to walk through life alone, or we can choose to open our hearts to meaningful, intentional, and purposeful connections that bring true fulfillment. Confidence grows when you take bold steps to connect with people different from yourself and embrace the value in diversity and differences. What’s one step you can take today to grow your community and be of value to other communities?

How to Create a Vision-Driven Community That Thrives 👇👇👇 A great community starts with a clear purpose. Ask yourself: 💬 What do you want to achieve together? 💬 How can your values shape the experience for your members? Once you have your vision, bring it to life by celebrating your people. Look for moments to highlight their contributions, whether it’s a success story or even a simple “thank you” for their engagement. Acknowledgment fosters connection and inspires others to participate. And most importantly, embrace patience. Take small steps today, like creating meaningful posts, hosting a Q&A, or gathering feedback from members. Over time, these efforts build trust and strengthen the foundation of your community.

A quick thought on community being what transforms a network into something meaningful. AND yes LinkedIn is one place you can find community. When we support each other—by sharing knowledge, celebrating wins, or simply engaging thoughtfully—we create connections that go beyond professional growth. It doesn’t always need to be about work, nor should it. A strong community reminds us that we don’t have to navigate our lives/ careers alone. Consider small actions such as: ⚫️ Checking in on someone (any medium) ⚫️ Liking a comment ⚫️ Sharing updates ⚫️ Taking a moment to make a recommendation ⚫️ Typing up a private message — These can all be the difference. A public thank you to those in my community who helped lift me up and let’s focus on lifting each other up. Who’s someone in your community you’d like to celebrate today? #IFKYK #CommunityMatters #SupportEachOther #YouKnowWhoYouAre #PoppyDoodle

🌟 The Power of Connection, The Courage to Share 🌟 One of our incredible team members recently shared a deeply personal story about how The SumMeet made a difference for him. Attending a conference with 70,000 people can feel overwhelming—especially for someone navigating social anxiety. But through our platform, he was able to ask questions and connect with the right people without exposing himself, finding the answers he needed in a way that felt safe and supportive. This is exactly why The SumMeet was created: ✔ To make connections accessible for everyone. ✔ To foster a space where people feel empowered to ask for help. ✔ To create meaningful interactions that break through the noise of massive events. We want to thank Luca Cappello, not only for your boldness and courage in sharing your story, but also for their incredible contribution to making The SumMeet a reality! You inspire us, and your experience reminds us why this mission matters 🙏 This is the power of connection. This is The SumMeet. 💡✨ #TheSumMeet #ConnectingWithPurpose #CommunityPower #SocialAnxiety #Courage #Boldness #24HourStartup #PurposeDriven #Innovation

Have you felt like your contributions don’t matter? I used to feel that way, too. But here’s what I learned: 👉 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐨 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫. Here’s what we should all remember: 📌 You matter – Whether you’re good with numbers, creative ideas, or helping others, your skills are valuable. 📌 Celebrate your uniqueness – Don’t compare yourself to others. What you have is needed. 📌 Lift others up – When you see someone struggling, remind them of their worth. We all need that encouragement sometimes. When we stop comparing and start seeing our own value, amazing things happen. And when we help others see theirs, we create a stronger, more supportive community. If you doubt your worth, remember: 𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒗𝒂𝒍𝒖𝒆, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒍𝒅 𝒏𝒆𝒆𝒅𝒔 𝒚𝒐𝒖. ✨ Take a moment today to tell someone you appreciate them. Share a strength you see in them that they might not notice. Let’s make each other stronger! Be strong 🦾…!

*How I found success by being part of a strong community. *You can't grow alone—community is the key to thriving in any industry. When I first started out, I knew that I would not be able to do this alone. But the real breakthrough happened when I connected with like-minded people who shared their experiences, insights, and support. Being part of a community doesn’t just give you access to new ideas—it gives you the confidence to take bigger steps. Whether it’s sharing wins, discussing challenges, or learning from others’ mistakes, the collective knowledge and encouragement from a supportive community can make all the difference. Here’s what I’ve learned: the more you give to your community, the more you get back. It’s not about what you can take, but how much value you can bring to others. Are you actively engaging with your community? How has it helped you grow?

A healthcare provider without losing the professionalism, quality, and genuine premium care. You should really do a (2-3 minute) free quote to compare costs and coverages with your current healthcare.

I'm always a believer in seeing it for yourself in person "! And, if its coming out of your check automatically because you have a job that pays it for you, you're not thinking about it because it automatically taken out each pay, but do the math. See the savings each month when you compare it with "Impact Healthcare".
