@DCMichaelA @LINKstrategic @Conscious_DC Bravo to all for elevating the topic of Mental Health in the workplace. Sharing a stage w/ #RoyHibbert & #GraceAdujaroKolker was a delight; sharing conversations throughout the night gave me a great opportunity to keep learning and sharing with some of the best #DMV Biz Leaders.

I am honored by @ReverendWarnock's endorsement. He fights for everyday hardworking people who have felt left behind for too long. I will fight alongside him in the U.S. Senate to bring down costs, expand opportunities, and defend democracy for all Americans.

@AMitch_68 @FoundingFarmKOP @nhannahjones I share your disappointment, and I accept I'm responsible for dropping the ball on having these plaques updated to reflect historical reality rather than a white-washed historical perspective. Thanks for putting it back on my radar, it will get done.

I know I talk a lot, but wanna know what makes me be quiet & listen? Being around amazing restaurateurs like @lientigre, Debby Soo, Hanson Li, @wguidara, & Kevin Boehm. It’s so cool to see @OpenTable launch into the future with better tech, better tools, & helping us be better.

I mean, how cute are these two? My mum never avoids new technology, even when it absolutely baffles her. “Filters” might be the norm for GenX and younger; for someone born in 1937 new tech continues to marvel.

@dbreese43 @FoundingFarmers Agreed! I've been known to add some chili on top. A burger is such a great platform to level up...I also love adding a perfectly fried egg.

@macymcgill96 @dbreese43 @FoundingFarmers hi. i don't exactly understand your question, but here's a thing i wrote that may help explain. https://t.co/nVDRg2fK8c

Since our start in 2008, normalizing conversations and breaking the stigma surrounding mental health has been a priority.

This requires continually weaving mental health into the daily conversation stream and making mental health & wellness an operational topic.

A pleasure & privilege to host a dinner for @CEXAlsobrooks at MoCo’s @foundingfarmers.

To build a mental health informed workplace, we have to be able to talk about supposedly "taboo" topics. If we're not openly discussing what affects our people's wellness, then we're not trying to better our workplace.
