Hey all I know that our little corner of the internet is a small one but I've honestly loved the conversations and having some sort of "check in Wednesday" or something like that I think a lot of us could benefit from.

I don't really know what goes into that but I was hoping people might feel the same way.

That's an awesome community and I really like the idea. The only reason I think it would benefit from being in this space is when you're in that dark state and need support the idea of raining on someone else's parade or adding something negative to an otherwise positive board pressures the person into re-thinking and there's a weight there that's hard to shake. I think a space where someone is expecting darkness feels more inviting to the person bringing theirs in.

Definitely, it makes sense!
