Hey there, it's Jamie. I'm popping in with a bonus episode -- a brief message of hope. Let's talk about how powerful hope can be and why we all need it, especially these days. With a little inspiration from Emily Dickinson, I want to remind everyone that hope perches in our soul and sings tirelessly, uplifting our spirits.

Gallup's 2025 Global Leadership Report shines a light on this: hope is what we crave from our leaders—not just those with titles, but everyday leaders like teachers and friends. It's more than a feeling; it's a gift we share that boosts our well-being and connects us even more.

Younger people are crying out for hope more than ever. They're seeking assurance in a world of uncertainties. Hope is what makes us dream, build, connect, and believe in a better tomorrow. Let's hold onto it and keep showing up for one another because we all matter.

So, embrace the unexpected places hope might reveal itself. Trust in the journey ahead and remember, you too can be a beacon of hope—your kindness and belief might just be what someone else needs. Max and I are back next week with more, but until then, I hope you keep thriving, learning, and connecting!
