π️ Free upcoming events: | | | MEMORIAL DAY πΊπΈ Honoring More Than a Day Off We love a good BBQ and a long weekend as much as the next gal, but Memorial Day is more than just the unofficial start of summer. It's a meaningful moment to honor U.S. service members who gave their lives in military service. πͺ¦ A Bit of History Originally known as Decoration Day, Memorial Day began after the Civil War, when communities gathered to place flowers, flags, and prayers on the graves of fallen soldiers. Over time, the tradition evolved to honor all Americans who've died in military service, and in 1971, it became a federal holiday. Every year, Americans are encouraged to pause at 3 PM local time for the National Moment of Remembrance—a small, powerful way to honor their sacrifice. π Understanding the Branches of Service Not all military uniforms are the same. Here's a quick rundown of the six branches and what they do: - Army: Our largest military branch, responsible for land-based operations.
- Navy: Conducts operations at sea to protect and project U.S. power worldwide.
- Air Force: Provides air and space superiority, global strike capability, and intelligence.
- Marine Corps: Highly mobile and versatile, they respond rapidly to crises.
- Coast Guard: Handles maritime safety, security, and environmental protection, especially in U.S. waters.
- Space Force: Oversees military operations in space, including satellite defense and communications.
π Learn more about each branch and what it takes to serve here. π How You Can Support Veterans (Today & Year-Round) Gratitude is powerful, but action speaks volumes. Here's how to give back: Whether you spend Memorial Day with family, in quiet reflection, or giving back to your community, we hope you take a moment to remember what it's really about: the lives given in service, and the loved ones they left behind. | | | PROJECT MANAGEMENT Beat the Sunday Scaries Before They Start It's Sunday at 4pm and your brain's already sprinting through Monday meetings, unread emails, and that rogue to-do list that just won't quit. Sound familiar? Let's fix that. Here's how to actually make your week feel calmer, clearer, and way more under control: ✅ Do a brain dump. Unload every task, deadline, and random mental sticky note into one place. Out of your head = out of your stress cycle. π Automate the boring stuff. Recurring tasks, reminders, and status updates? Let your tools babysit the workflow, not you. π
Do a Friday reset. Before you sign off, spend 15 minutes prioritizing, time-blocking, and adding those "don't forget" items. Future you will thank you. π―♀️ Sync with your team. Shared boards = less back-and-forth and way fewer "Wait, what's the status on this?" moments. π‘ Pro tip: Color-code by energy level so you can match your tasks to your brainpower. Inbox cleanup when you're at 30%. Deep work when you're full battery. ✨ BONUS: We made a Startup Guide so you can get organized without the tech drama. Just clarity, flow, and your most on-top-of-it self. π Grab your guide here. | | | STAFF PICKS π Read: Accidentally on Purpose by Kristen Kish From adoptee to Top Chef, Kristen Kish's story simmers with heart.
