Meditate, do pushups, - [Be Present](https://lotusnetwork.org/connection-challenge/be-present/) - So many of our conversations these days are via text or email.

"Truly listening and paying attention to what people - [Go Tech-Free](https://lotusnetwork.org/connection-challenge/go-tech-free/) - Though technology has kept us in contact through the pandemic, it has also become an obstacle to deeper human connection.

The next time you're around someone who does this kind of work, ask them for information they'd like to share: a piece of history, a favorite fact, something most visitors don't know. - [Pay Attention](https://lotusnetwork.org/connection-challenge/pay-attention/) - When someone is talking to you, listen. Period. When you don’t listen, it makes the other person feel like you don’t care. If you’re not sure about your listening skills, ask friends and family if they feel like you listen actively when you have conversations with them.

Who’s shy at - [Let People Go Ahead of You](https://lotusnetwork.org/connection-challenge/let-people-go-ahead-of-you/) - The next time you’re at the grocery store, the coffee shop, or a crowded intersection, and you have a little extra time, let someone else go first—especially if this person seems stressed or in a hurry.

A friendship that crosses your mind every once in a while? Reach out with a text, an email, or a call.

Better Together. - [Reach Out](https://lotusnetwork.org/connection-challenge/reach-out/) - We try to do so much alone. Yet there is little that we, as humans, have accomplished without others.

Better - [Borrow What You Need](https://lotusnetwork.org/connection-challenge/borrow-what-you-need/) - Instead of going to the store or the supply closet, seize the next chance you have to ask a friend, neighbor, or coworker if you can borrow something you need: a stapler, a hammer, a quarter, a cup of sugar.

Her story is a moving testament to resilience, self-care, and the courage it takes to find balance—at any stage of life. - [Jackie Wesley](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/jackie-wesley/) - When the lights went out during her women’s ministry meeting, Jackie Wesley knew it wasn’t a power outage — it was a message from the Holy Spirit. You have breast cancer. What followed was a six-year battle for her life: surgeries, radiation, and chemo — all while raising two sons and holding on to faith. But from that darkness came a calling. Jackie founded Fighting Together to Save Lives, a nonprofit providing free mammograms and support to women in the BIPOC community. Today, she’s on a mission to make sure every woman gets the chance to live, love, and see her grandchildren grow. - [Tammy Turner](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/tammy-turner/) - There are certain questions most people are lucky enough to find easy to answer. Where are you from? What kind of work do you do? How many children do you have? For Shelli Brockman, the answers to those first two - she is from Denver and spent most of her career in real estate - are simple enough. The third, however, is much more complicated. The answer is three. Shelli has three sons, but none of them are living. How that came to be is a story of depression, medical malpractice, and nearly unbearable tragedy. - [Shelli Brockman](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/shelli-brockman/) - There are certain questions most people are lucky enough to find easy to answer. Where are you from? What kind of work do you do? How many children do you have? For Shelli Brockman, the answers to those first two - she is from Denver and spent most of her career in real estate - are simple enough. The third, however, is much more complicated. The answer is three. Shelli has three sons, but none of them are living. How that came to be is a story of depression, medical malpractice, and nearly unbearable tragedy. - [Anne Fanganello](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/anne-fanganello/) - Anne Fanganello had a closet full of clothes, high-end couture straight from the runways of New York, each piece tailored to complement her every curve, but none of it was right for the new life she was building back home in Colorado. In a place where Patagonia tended to be the label of choice, Anne needed more casual options; the problem was finding them in the size 24 she needed at the time. The few options available to her - unappealing with their cheap fabric and poor design - felt insulting, not only because she had spent her entire career creating high-quality garments, but also because Anne LOVED her body. Her body had spent the better part of a decade battling a cancer that could easily have been a death sentence and her gorgeous, miraculous body had won. So no, it wasn’t her body that was making her feel bad, it was her clothes, and it was the clothes that needed to change. - [Terri Yourtz](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/terri-yourtz/) - When Gary Yourtz first met the woman who would become his wife and life partner for over sixty years, he was barely out of high school and sipping a 3.2 beer at a local club. Teresa (Terri to everyone else but always Teresa to him) was tall and slim and beautiful, with great legs he couldn’t help but notice and a head full of the high, teased hair that was all the rage at the time. Gary asked her to dance, and by the end of the evening he had both her phone number and a sneaking suspicion he was already falling in love. - [Cleo Parker Robinson](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/cleo-parker-robinson/) - Cleo believes the arts are food for the soul, a nourishment we need now more than ever.

Through her creativity, commitment and activism, Cleo continues to build bridges of hope, love, and compassion, reminding each of us to express our inner power, and dance together in any way we can. - [Hazel Miller](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/hazel-miller/) - Music, Hazel says, keeps you young in the body, spirit and soul. It gives you hope, a hope Hazel offers to every person who comes to see her perform. When she gets up on stage, Hazel makes sure that no matter where the audience came from or what they are going back to when they leave, when they are with her, they are having as great a time as she is. - [Marcia Romero](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/marcia-romero/) - Marcia Romero’s life is a testament to the power of perseverance, cultural pride, and the importance of representation.

Through months of grueling treatment and intensive rehabilitation, she not only reclaimed her voice but also redefined her priorities, embracing a new balance in life that values joy, connection, and self-care as she embarks on a fresh chapter in her career. - [Lovie Cunningham](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/lovie-cunningham/) - Lovie Cunningham hopes that we, as a society, can see and respect others as they are and, when the opportunity arises, do as a kind stranger once did for her: Take someone’s hand and guide them, with love, to where they need to go. - [Judith Alexander](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/judith-alexander/) - Judith Alexander comes from a lineage of strong, independent men and women. Each generation did its part to clear the path for her to live a life of her choosing, the course of which she is still building upon today to shape her present. - [Stacy Pike](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/stacy-pike/) - Stacy Pike begins each day—the good and the bad—putting into practice a well-honed skill: silencing and disputing negative self-talk and setting the terms of her own existence. Each day, despite the challenges she is up against, Stacy makes the conscious choice to remind herself that she is strong, to find the joy life still brings her in so many ways, and to continue to give. - [Denice Reich](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/denice-reich/) - We all experience failure and life will never go according to plan. What matters is what you do about it. Denice Reich, who has never defined herself by other people or situations, knows all too well that life is not a fairy tale. We need to learn to save ourselves. - [Joanne Davidson](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/joanne-davidson/) - Joanne Davidson often thinks about an ongoing conversation she has with her college roommate, pondering whether life is determined by fate or destiny. She has never been able to answer that question. What she does know is that she is grateful for the way her life has unfolded, and she intends to hold that gratitude closely as she continues to move through what she knows has been a blessed life. - [Katie Friedland](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/katie-friedland/) - Katie Friedland's busy life led her to miss a crucial mammogram, but a routine task led to a cancer diagnosis, plunging her into a tumultuous journey of surgeries and treatment. Through this painful process, she discovered newfound resilience and a determination to embrace life's uncertainties as she begins a new chapter at 51, full of art, connections, and the hope of love. - [Marla Wynne Ginsburg](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/marla-wynne-ginsburg/) - Marla Wynne Ginsburg has experienced a remarkable journey of career twists and personal transformations.

After losing Morgan, she and her husband channeled their grief into philanthropy, founding the Morgan Adams Foundation to fund pediatric cancer research.

Teri Smith, who has been in recovery since 2005, has those stories too, and she doesn't shy away from them, but for her, the far more compelling story is what caused her addiction to gain a foothold in the first place, and the new life she has forged for herself since. - [Vivian Delgado](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/vivian-delgado/) - Vivian Delgado is of the Yaqui/Tiwa nations and comes from a direct line of enslavement and captivity. Growing up, Vivian was bombarded with messages that she was less than those in the dominant culture and she began pushing back in her teens.

It was, she says, “a long, hard, good year,” a year of discovery, exhaustion, growth and ultimately, success. None of it was easy. All of it took time. But, as with the memorable events she creates for others, so too it is in the slow and often painstaking process of building a life and a career. - [Rita Bellino](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/rita-bellino/) - Whether it is with a family member at the dinner table being served a bowl of pasta or a client settling into her salon chair, Rita Bellino strives to bring out the very best in the person in front of her. - [Irma Velazquez](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/irma-velazquez/) - Irma Velazquez did not grow up with love, and her scars are a visible reminder of all that she was forced to endure, but what she has chosen to keep from that time is what she refers to as the reward for all her pain, the love that was born inside her with each of her children. - [Dafna Michaelson Jenet](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/dafna-michaelson-jenet/) - Throughout her years of advocacy and leadership, Dafna has had to navigate a complicated landscape of divorce and remarriage, more than one round of cancer, the loss of a desperately wanted baby through miscarriage, and the trials that come with raising a struggling child.

Along the way, she learned that it's never too late to strive. - [Sarah Metsch](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/sarah-metsch/) - Sarah Metsch’s life so far has been much like that of the mythical Phoenix, taking what might look like destruction and turning it into something beautiful.

Read her story to learn that it's never too late to try something new. - [Verónica Figoli](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/veronica-figoli/) - Verónica Figoli’s story is, in part, a story of immigration, but like all immigrant stories, the geographical relocation is only the beginning.

It is a story of carving a new path. - [Linda Pilcher](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/linda-pilcher/) - Linda Pilcher has learned through hardship that life is fragile, but that is what makes it beautiful. Read her inspiring life story about finding your unique passions to learn that it's never too late to live your next dream. - [Pam Hatcher](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/pam-hatcher/) - Pam Hatcher has learned from experience that there is no such thing as growth in the absence of setbacks. Those lessons have come in the form of a strained relationship with a free-spirited, largely absent mother and the collapse of a long-term friendship and business partnership. While both created stress and hardship, they also helped shape Pam into the businesswoman, partner and mother she is proud to be today. - [Amanda Moriuchi](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/amanda-moriuchi/) - When a baby is born, it is often described as perfect. This is not because the baby meets some empirical standard of perfection, but simply because the baby is. Somewhere along the way, however, expectations shift; we seem to lose our intrinsic value, focusing less on what makes us valuable and more on the ways in which we fail to measure up. This month’s Lotus Lady wants us to change the way we think about that. It is never too late, she believes, to know our worth. - [Becky Haddad](https://lotusnetwork.org/lotus-lady/becky-haddad/) - “A woman is like a teabag – you can’t tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water.” Eleanor Roosevelt said that. Becky Haddad lived it.
