For the past year, our country has been bogged down in not ONE deep crisis, but THREE:a pandemic, an economic meltdown and unprecedented political turmoil.Dealing with this has dominated much of our energy, attention and for many Americans, even our emotions.While most would NOT be upset if we could magically erase this whole pandemic experience, we have much to learn from it and even much to gain.

1.Go beyond the headlines andshare THREE lessons you have learned (identify and explain why).If you feel uncomfortable sharing your personal feelings, then interview someone who is willing to tell you THREE lessons they learned and why.

2.Discuss how we canuse these learnings to make life betteras we recover and move forward.
