Day 7

Get a tribe!

I have always been blessed with such amazing friends in my life. Moving three times, some have come and gone, but I always cherished them when I was with them. I love being around people, and during this time, it's hard not to be able to see the friends we usually have lunches with or happy hours. It's a sacrifice for the greater good right now. Just because you can't BE with your friends right now doesn't mean you can't facetime or zoom call with them to connect. Just being able to see their face and feel connected is so important.

I have so many great groups of friends from my FFF girls, my bunco girls, my book club girls, former colleagues, and last but certainly not least, my Rise besties.

I have spent all morning laughing with my Rise besties. I met these ladies at a business conference in November, and we have talked or texted every single day since we met. We went from zero to besties in like a week because we decided that it was important, and we made the time. We support each other, make each other laugh, challenge each other, and sometimes just listen.

Who can you connect with today over the phone? It doesn't have to be in person. I haven't seen my Rise besties since November, but we make the time each day to connect even if it's just for a little bit.

Pick up the phone, call someone, anyone! If you don't have anyone to call, call me! I'll talk to you :) And if you made it to the end of this blog, you clearly either agree with what I'm saying, or you enjoy my company. So, call me or someone else, but make sure you are connecting with someone today for your #30for30together, your endorphins will thank you!
