Hello friends,

I am heading off for an intense few weeks of travel. It’s always hard to step away, but the work feels especially urgent right now as we head into the new school year and then the midterms. I am reminding myself to take advantage of this disruption to my routine, so I can pause and focus on what is most important.

I hope you can do that too, in any large or small way that makes sense for your own life. I warmly encourage you to take this opportunity to revisit and adjust your subscription, for example. If you need to redirect your funds, please do so! I am so deeply grateful for the support you provide for this project, and I am not going anywhere.

I will be back and writing weekly briefings again on Week 38 (September 18)! Until then, take care of yourself and each other.

My best, always,
Liz
