#CoolShit 06.09.20
Happy Tuesday.
The one thing I want to do a better job of in this email, is not only share important & cool content I come across, but also share actionable ways you can get involved in making #BlackLivesMatter.
Today, please sign the petition to seek justice for Breonna Taylor.
There’s a motto we use in our office (when we were in the office) that is super relevant today - Progress Everyday. The amount of progress that has been made in the past 2 weeks is going to change the world, but we’re not done. Whatever you’re working on, just make progress on it today. A lot, a little, it doesn’t matter, just keep moving forward.

See you tomorrow!

Amidst everything going on, some GREAT news.
