💛 A great afternoon around The Big Table!
This week, Kristen and I had the opportunity to attend The Big Table at The Columbus Foundation. Our conversation focused on Research on Kindness: What We’ve Learned & Shaping What’s Next and explored how kindness and social connection can help strengthen our relationships and our communities.
It was a wonderful reminder that making an impact can start with something as simple as connecting with others, listening, and choosing kindness.
We’re grateful for opportunities like this to step outside of our everyday work, learn from others in our community, and be part of conversations that help make Central Ohio an even better place to call home. 💛

🏈 Still thinking about this fun day at The Shoe! ❤️
A few weeks ago, we had the chance to spend game day with the Thrivent Member Network at Ohio Stadium. Between Buckeye football, connecting with fellow Thrivent members, and giving back through Thrivent Action Teams, it was such a great day!
I love opportunities like this that bring together community, generosity, and fun.
Thanks to everyone who joined us and made it such a memorable experience. Go Bucks! 🌰🏈
