Hi folks!
I got back from Italy late on Friday night and now I’m in Bend, Oregon where I’m giving a keynote for a health system.
I’ve noticed that when people ask “How was Italy?,” I feel pressure to have a funny story or some sort of concise response ready (because I want to avoid the “Great!”, because we all know how annoying “Great!” is).
Because of the hectic pace of April, I don’t have the words for that yet. It will probably be a little bit before I do because May is Maternal Mental Health month so I’m doing more speaking/teaching.
(What happened to The Year of Slow, you ask? Yeah, I’m asking myself that too as my career has taken on the new element of travel…Let’s talk about it in a future letter, k?)
As a placeholder, please see below — Italian cats hanging out in scenic locations.
