Hi fellow AdaptDev'rs,
How is it June already?
I swear January was three weeks ago. And yet here we are — halfway through the year, looking back at the intentions we set and feeling some version of:
I meant to do more than this.Maybe you hit a few goals. Maybe you didn't hit any. Maybe life just happened — a restructure, a funding cut, a health scare, the relentless weight of the external world pressing down on everything you were trying to hold. And the strategic thinking kept getting pushed to next week.
If you're a woman of color or an underrepresented leader in social impact, you know this weight lands differently. You're not just managing your own priorities. You're holding other people's too.
I've been there. I still go there.
Here's something I keep having to relearn: rest is not a reward for finishing everything. It's not something you earn. It's something you're allowed — and that's exactly where we're starting on June 30.
From Reactive to Strategic: Summer Leadership Reset is a FREE 90-minute mid-year reset to help you move into the second half with intention, not just momentum.
