Hey NP!
Anybody else hitting the “I miss everyone I know” lane yet? I’m hitting that haaard this week.
Also ~
I have to say, you all are amazing. Thanks for all the DMs, texts, conversations (some on the ski hill this past weekend), and quick calls. I know I shared something last week that may have brought up different thoughts or emotions for you. I hope you got my intention in sharing what I did cuz that part (intention) matters… a lot.
Turns out, a lot of you – both in and out of the NP community – have experienced the core of what I shared. Those of you who reached out of course.
Well this is helpful.
Now that I know this, I think it’s time to do some thinking, listening, and early planning on how to address this and move forward.
Maybe something you should know about me is that I don’t see stuff like this as a problem. I see it as an opportunity.
We love our NP community. We want to be part of it for as long as we chose. We want to feel welcome when we do show up. We want to work our a$$ off as we’ve done in years past and years to come.
Yes?
Well, I want to help with making sure we can continue to do this- as Andrew, Nadim, and Jen have done for us all for years.
I’m lucky to have Rob as a co-leader and partner in crime, Jen and Nadim as advisors/the best supporters ever, all of you to connect with and (I hope) chat with about your vision for NP in the future, and a whole community of NP leaders who love NP as much as we all do.
Random thoughts. I know. I just want to say that I hear you and I want to start thinking about what a return could look like… whenever that day comes. For all those who want to be part of NP.
You’re hilarious
On a different note, here’s some of the best tidbits you’ve shared with us over the past couple of weeks (hahahaha):
- Everybody, yeah rock your body, yeah Backstreet’s Back, alright
- Seeing burpees on the list makes me groan out loud. Every. Time.
- Star Jumps aren’t as happy as they sound.
- Our elbow scabs just fell off… new elbow burn burn feels so good
- One of us beauties finished the workout post-ski day, beer and sausage at Sunshine
- Rug burn on toes from plank jacks are real.
- Contrary to popular belief, a turtle cannot come out of its shell.
- Polaris is the 50th brightest star in the night sky but it’s still the most useful if you’re lost in the woods.
- Turtles could (hypothetically) give you a high five. They have 5 toes on each limb.
- Canada is the worlds top exporter of pulses and pulses regenerate soil quality without nitrogen based fertilizer (Food science is cool).
- One of us didn’t read the workout properly and did a million sets of 10 instead!
And this week’s tally is….
