#CheckInWithMe: Give and get support here.

Hi, Mighty fam! ⭐

We’ll be exploring and talking all about traditions this week. Let’s start with the basics.

A tradition is a set of practices, beliefs, thought patterns, or customs that have been handed down from generation to generation by an individual or group of people. Some traditions we may be familiar with are the celebration of birthdays or holidays, but they can also be cultural, societal, religious, community-created, health-related, or determined by a family or group of friends. Traditions help us to foster connection with one another and also transfer information or heritage through storytelling and shared history.

What is your favorite tradition? Why is that tradition important to you?

Let us know in the comments below. 🙂⬇️

Friday has come at last, Mighties! Great job with this week's self-care challenge .👏

Our final activity will be to reflect and share about how we can improve our own communication skills.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks would like to improve her communication skills by being more confident in her own voice and speaking up more.

No matter how long you've known someone or been in a situation or circumstance, sometimes it's still super challenging to communicate effectively. No judgment here, we totally get it. 🙋

@sparklywartanks says she struggles to communicate effectively when she feels uncomfortable, anxious, or around someone she hasn't spoken to in a long time.

What about you? In what situations is it challenging for you to communicate effectively?
