This past week, I traded in my busy schedule for a kayak and the serene waters of the Delaware River. Paddling through the gentle currents, surrounded by nature's beauty, and spending quality time with my family, I found the rest and restoration my mind and body desperately needed. ๐Ÿ™‚

Taking a step back allows us to recharge, gain fresh perspectives, and return with renewed energy and creativity. ๐ŸŒŸ
