Greetings from the My Voice Media Center!
It's been wonderful to see so many of you participating in our sessions, exploring your creativity, and building connections within our community.
As we enter September, we’re embracing the steady, calming energy of Olive Green – a color that symbolizes peace, resilience, and enduring strength. Just as the olive tree stands firm through changing seasons, we too can find resilience in our challenges and grow stronger with each experience. This month, let's come together to explore and nurture these qualities in ourselves and in our shared spaces.

At-home Activity: Resilience Journal
This month, consider starting a “Resilience Journal.” Each day, jot down one challenge you’ve faced and how you overcame it, whether big or small. Reflect on the strength you demonstrated and how it contributed to your growth. This simple practice can help you build a strong foundation of resilience over time.
