As people are getting more and more bored at home, awesome things are surfacing. There's light news, inspiring news, or even predictions about what our future looks like it's being heard and seen. Here are a few that stood out this week:

I've got some pretty exciting things brewing that I cannot wait to share. In the meantime, this week's links are fun and silly and maybe inspiring a summer fashion trend?!? Enjoy!

Living from home. That’s where we’re at right now. I’m trying to get my head wrapped around the idea. But what about you? Are you settling in or getting restless? Happy or perplexed?

This week focuses on focusing, with a little sugar thrown in (because why not?… we’re all on a perpetual holiday, and it is summer!)

No matter where I turn, color, and art are catching my eye. The creativity gene that oftentimes is dormant feels alive. Does this mean I’m breaking out some watercolor or clay? Probably not. But my eyes are wide open for talent to add life and perspective to the plain walls around me. This week’s links explore creativity, art, and colors.

As this week closes, there’s a sense of innovation and introspection in the air. How can we do better? How can we change even more of what we want to change in the world? There are more informational pieces vs. cool things this week because what I’m seeing are challenges and questions asked about our future. What will it look like? And most importantly, what do you want it to look like?

Thank you to those who made the status quo uncomfortable. Thank you for those who have opened your hearts and minds to listen and understand. And thank you to the behavior change at scale that's taking place.

The world is going to look wildly different in 1 year, five years, 20 years' time. I can't wait to see what it will look like and how different we will all be.

Summer is here. And the world feels like it's moving (some in the right direction and some in the very wrong). Wherever you're at in the world, I hope you're feeling a hopeful shift. Summer is about being free, getting an ample amount of vitamin D, and watermelon & ice cream on every holiday. And most importantly, play. It's how we all learn. Whether you're a kid or an adult, learning by doing is a critical way to make something stick if you're looking to make a change - in this season or overall - make time to play, just like on a warm summer day.
