This was one of those weeks that seemed to disappear into thin air. Thankfully, I have a lot to show for it, and there were some key moments throughout it that I hope to remember for a long time.
In the newsletter, I shared my thoughts on being “just ok” at things and my simple framework for learning.

Weekly Insight
This week’s insight comes from a quote that I read. That quote led me to think about how it applies to my life and the perspective I’m working to have.
“The space between expectation and reality is tension, pain, and suffering. ~Dan Koe
My interpretation and application:
The space between the fairy tales we envision for our family and the beautiful chaos of reality is where we grow into the parents and partners we’re meant to be.
