The news coming out of the United States is horrific. My heart goes out to the millions of American women who are now set to lose their legal right to an abortion. I can’t imagine the fear and anger you are feeling right now.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Today is a very solemn moment for the United States.

The Supreme Court expressly took away a Constitutional right from the American people that it had already recognized. They simply took it away. That's never been done to a right that is so important to so many Americans.

I'm stunned and despondent by the Supreme Court's decision. Roe v Wade passed when I was a little girl & I grew up knowing I hold agency over my own body. Let me be very clear: my body is my right and no one - NO ONE - has the right to dictate my choices.

Amazing evening at the Colorado Independent Publishers Association annual EVVY awards. Silver award in Business awarded to "Pitfalls & Possibilities." Proud, proud, and excited!

Obviously, my tweeting fell off the radar while I was on the road. Did anything big or important happen in the world while I was gone?

Yesterday, on the 2021 Possibilities tour, I scouted out locations for retreats in beautiful Colorado. Here's a little bit of "Eden" on the western slope in Colorado...

And somewhere, amidst the rock and clay of Arches State Park lies a dusty copy of my first book: "Pitfalls & Possibilities"...

[Karen Main, author & public speaker @karenmain]

Yesterday I visited the beauty of the red rocks in #ArchesStatePark, Utah. While I'm familiar with red rock formations as a Colorado gal, I've never seen such a vast display like in Utah. Pretty spectacular, I'd say...

@blestcrone I've only just begun to view your posts! So grateful for the passion you brought to this project so all of us could see these images from the past. A heartfelt thank you.

[Karen Main, author & public speaker @karenmain]

I'm gearing up for an epic road trip, what I'm calling the "2021 Possibilities Tour" and I hope I get to see some of you. My trek begins in Moab, weaves through Colorado, then NM, ultimately ending back here in AZ. Stay tuned for check-ins from the road!

#GLTrain my big take-away from today's sessions: support and empower front-line supervisors and middle managers in government so they have the tools, information, and support they need to support their teams. Seems so simple, but often last on the radar for upper-level leaders.

[Karen Main, author & public speaker @karenmain]

@Govloop provides informative sessions today with expert speakers and easy format. Way to go #GLTrain

Back from a full - and fun - time talking and networking at Oregon Pupil Transportation. Great people who take pupil transportation seriously. Seriously.

[Karen Main, author & public speaker @karenmain]

Moving into Leadership is my new baby! It's a hybrid program designed to give new supervisors the foundation they need to step into their role with confidence! The self-paced program begins July 7th with our first virtual check-in on July 30th.

Another terrific MasterMind session today w/a small, elite group of water industry leaders. We call it "The FLOW" which stands for "Future Leaders of Water." Catchy, huh?

[Karen Main, author & public speaker @karenmain]

I checked it out, wondering if maybe my book, Pitfalls & Possibilities, was on his list? Guess my book is too new...
