Today we’re celebrating the power of simple gestures 💛 • A smile. • A handwritten note. • A cup of coffee for the person behind you. • A quick text to check in on someone. Random Acts of Kindness may seem small, but they can make a big difference in someone’s day. Kindness has a ripple effect — one thoughtful act can inspire another and another. Let’s challenge ourselves to brighten someone’s day this week. Hold the door open. Leave an encouraging note. Offer a helping hand.

🐿️ Groundhog Day Trivia • Groundhog Day is celebrated every year on February 2. • The tradition comes from a Pennsylvania German custom tied to Candlemas. • Punxsutawney Phil is the most famous groundhog and has been predicting the weather since 1887. • Legend says if the groundhog sees his shadow, we’ll have 6 more weeks of winter—no shadow means an early spring. • Groundhogs are also called woodchucks—and yes, they can chuck wood (about 35 pounds a day!). • Phil’s predictions are only accurate about 40% of the time, but the tradition lives on. • Groundhog Day became even more popular after the 1993 movie Groundhog Day.

November is Long Term Awareness Month Week 4 🌿 You can’t predict the future—but you can prepare for it. Long-term care planning is about more than finances. It’s about choice, dignity, and protecting what matters most. Let’s make this month the time you start the conversation. Because the best plan is one made while you’re still healthy and in control. 🌟 #LongTermCareAwarenessMonth #ProtectYourFuture #FinancialWellness See thrivent.com/social for important disclosures.
