IN THIS EDITION: BUYERS JOURNEY | OPEN JOB ROLES | THINK PIECES | PRODUCT NEWS | SURPRISE!
You're not alone, we see you 👀
April was a bit of a smorgasbord from what we hear around the industry. Some big wins as folks position themselves to tell great stories about their community wins across their business. Big launches of new communities (we see you Nicolette, Scott and Esther). Some deep losses when it comes to folks losing their jobs and honestly some exhaustion, as folks seem to be doing more with less. 

Remember that you need to take care of numero uno (pssst, that's you). Life in community is always a balance, but you can't pour from an empty cup. Please make sure that you're prioritizing you!

With great affection,
