Coming off a 2-month stint of high stress, this resonated with me. Since Mid-May: 2 business travel trips 1 travel vacation sandwiched between the business trips (I hate flying by the way. Not just as an inconvenience but major anxiety requiring medication to get on the planes.) 1 sick, senior dog - several expensive vet trips, medications and weekly check-in appointments. (Was it time to make "the decision?" Had to ask myself that question a few times.) 1 car accident - a hit and run on my 2-hour commute into the office. Followed by over a month of back & forth with police, insurance, repair shops. 1 family member moved to hospice for a week before passing away. I bounced back & forth between work and hospice every day for that week. There was at least 1 vet appointment for the dog. There were intermittent phone calls with my insurance. There was the accidental notice the police department sent me telling me criminal charges were going to be filed against me for leaving the scene of the accident. Ummm, no. I was the one who was hit. And, oh yeah, my family all moving through different parts of a grief process for someone we knew was going to die from end stage dementia. I had to be strong for them while being very sad on my insides. I am someone who performs well under crisis and sometimes even pride myself on it. This was different. Objectively, I could look at this list and understand it was colossal for any "average" person and I'd expect anyone else to have broken by the halfway point. Why was I holding myself to a higher standard? I started acupuncture appointments the week our family member was in hospice. I never know if these types of things really work but I'm willing to try anything which can't hurt. It will either work because it's supposed to, or it could work from placebo effect. I have had one appointment snap me out of a huge, days long funk I had been in after my aunt passed. That felt palpable. I am also heeding the advice I am being given in these sessions. Maybe don't force myself to go the gym every day because I am very hard on myself about weight gain. Maybe it's ok to leave the lawn mowing for tomorrow rather than tonight after work. Get the dairy free ice cream on Friday afternoon and just enjoy eating it sitting in your car in the parking lot. It's ok to have more than 1 bubble bath in a week. If I want to spend 6 hours in the house, doing puzzles while my dog and cat laze on the couch next to me, so be it. On weekends, I feel like I must maximize time on the beach. But I'm just not feeling the summer tourists & spending the initial peaceful moments dreading the group whose going to plop down super close to me blaring their radio. The point is, this is life. For all of us, at multiple times. This is life. Give yourself grace. Take care of yourself even when you are deep in the trenches of it. Do whatever you must to stay who you are.
We love these words of wisdom from Stephanie Harrison. 💜

Great recommendation from Eric!
Vice President of Human Resources @ Tindall Corporation | Experienced Business and Human Resources Servant Leader
One of the ways to best honor those impacted by the events of September 11 is to Learn the Stories of 9/11 Fallen Heroes. In the true spirit of America, heroes were everywhere that day. Some stories will never be known. Some heroic moments were someone's last memory that day. Some courageous experiences took place miles away providing comfort and strength in a time of great need. Each and every one of these stories should be learned, repeated and never forgotten.

Raymond Malone, Chairman Fairness in Construction Board 414 E 12th Street, 4th Floor East Kansas City, Missouri 64106 raymond.malone1943@gmail.com April 16, 2024 Quinton Lucas, Mayor City Council, All Districts Cc: Brian Platt, City Manager Cc:Jaime Guillen, CREO Director City of Kansas City, Missouri City Hall, 29th Floor (Mayor) City Hall, 22nd Floor (City Council) Kansas City, Missouri 64106 Honorable Mayor and City Councilpersons, Our past letters and messages to you to date have gone unanswered, therefore I’m forced to write this letter to informed you of our very real concerns. As the appointed Chair of the Fairness in Construction Board, who has always strived for excellence and professionalism, I find it necessary to address these issues in the hope of fostering a more inclusive and equitable contracting environment. As a reminder, the Fairness in Construction Board was created to address and remediate unfair public procurement procedures in both city funded and assisted projects, including tax incentivized projects. Particularly, the Fairness in Construction Board addresses disparities and exclusion of available and qualified socioeconomically disadvantaged businesses on publicly funded and assisted contracts. Through the implementation of the Fairness in Construction Board (“Board”), we have created a more competitive and fair environment for all. This is achieved through the collaborative process of the members of the Board. Being comprised of collective bargaining organizations, majority owned businesses, minority and woman owned businesses, construction business organizations, professional construction services organizations, and community input has created a partnership that promotes equal access, opportunity and protection of the laws of the city, state and federal government in public procurement. The strength of the Board has been transparency in data collection and reporting from the City’s Civil Rights and Equal Opportunity Department. After repeated requests, the Board has been denied access to reports, administrative support and monitoring of city-funded and assisted contracts, including tax-incentivized projects (such as the Meta data-center project and more recently the Google data-center project). This has caused an increase in complaints of discriminatory activity in public procurement processes, on construction projects and reports of economic abuse of small and disadvantaged businesses on taxpayer funded projects. Over the past several decades, I have encountered numerous instances of discrimination based on race, color, sex and national origin in construction and its contracting procedures. These instances have ranged from subtle biases to outright discriminatory actions. A few examples of why Prime contractors need to be monitored. Especially JE Dunn, Turner Construction and McCownGordon in Kansas City Missouri our Disparity report displays discrimination. Mayor ignores Kcmo Fairness Board.
My heartfelt condolences to @MichelleObama and her family on the loss of her beloved mother. Mrs. Robinson's legacy of love, strength, and resilience will live on through all who knew her.

Who was that good samaritan again? We don't know. In the biblical parable of the Good Samaritan, the story leaves us guessing about the characters. We have no information about the good samaritan nor the man he helped. No names, no titles, just two strangers on the same mountain road. This story strips back the layers of identity to spotlight the action: a man saving another man out of compassion. It's not about the applause either: there isn't any witness. I think it's a good reminder in our accolade-driven world: what matters isn't who you are but what you do. When I help teams struggling to work together, I ask: Are your focusing on the actors, or on the action? Are you fixated on the person, or are you doing what's right? What about you? Are you focusing on the actors, or on the action? Have a great weekend! Olivier (Oh, and DALL-E designed that picture after a few rounds of prompts)
