-I write down an outline of my workshop with times and jot down feedback and adjustments for myself to reflect on later; this helps me keep track of time live and remember my micro and macro adjustments and brightspots for later

-I have a second monitor and I practice my tech setup with my partner (he joins my zoom from another room and I practice switching between screens and playing music/testing volume/etc)

-I like learning Mac and Zoom shortcuts so I touch my mouse (which slows me down) as little as possible for virtual workshops

Journalist and author, Gail Sheehy, on growth:

"If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we are not really living.

Growth demands a temporary surrender of security. It may mean a giving up of familiar but limiting patterns, safe but unrewarding work, values no longer believed in, relationships that have lost their meaning."
