Back(up)

To my great surprise, I woke up this morning with a migraine and intense, lower back pain. (What is this? Is this 40? Just kidding. I think.) I have no idea why. I do get migraines a few times a year, but back pain is not common at all for me. It’s also gotten progressively better throughout the morning, thankfully.

Michigan Nones and Dones, one of the communities I help organize, meets on Saturday, and there are many people there who can also help to lead and welcome newcomers. By the time I got on the screen, I felt a bit better, but they all did this.

Part of leadership is nurturing the leadership of others and/or just getting out of the way and letting them do what they are already so good at doing.
