We pushed the sabbatical back two years so that I could steer the organization through the pandemic and be able to travel safely.

The holiday season is beginning to ramp up, and your thoughts may be consumed by Black Friday deals or how to make your nana's pecan pie.

Keep your calendar for the broad strokes and your to-do list for the finer details. Time is a gift; use it for what truly matters.
