Time just seems to fly by when you have 3 kids and a full-time job while also trying to balance some sort of ‘we’ time with your spouse and ‘me’ time to stay sane. In 2020, I want to be better at embracing the craziness for what it is; having more patience with the kids; and giving myself more grace when the balancing act of life is not quite as balanced as I’d like.”
– Trish Mueller
Policy Lead, Centers for
Disease Control and
Prevention, 42

“I want to judge less, listen more, and eat healthier!”
