    Hi Beth,
    So grateful that I found your podcast – keeping me company here as I tap away from home.
    The war room is a good concept – although the times are not working for me…
    Thanks,
    Bren

      Hi Bren, so grateful you found it, too! The focus groups/war room sessions were awesome. So incredibly helpful… so much so, I plan to do them at least once a year, as a way to stay in touch with the community’s needs and wants. I also found it energizing to get direct feedback. Maybe a time will work for you to join us in the future. Stay tuned ;-).
