🧠 ONE BIG THOUGHT

Today’s about memory—but not just of war.

Memorial Day reminds us to honor the fallen, yes—but also to remember something else we tend to bury:

Ourselves.

When you’re raising kids, caring for aging parents, juggling a relationship, and trying to show up at work like nothing’s breaking down behind the scenes, your own needs get buried.

So today, in honor of those who gave everything…
💬 Give yourself one moment.
🕒 Take the National Moment of Remembrance at 3 PM local time.
🙏 Breathe.
❤️ And remember: you're still here. You matter too.
