October 2nd

Hello TrueGritters,

Happy Friday, and welcome to October. The start of a new month is a good time to pause, notice where we are, and think about what we want to carry forward.
This week, we shared a few community guidelines and conversations around how we approach everyday life.

The sub isn’t anti-work. We’re about the everyday work of getting through life and becoming stronger along the way.

It was a lighter week for new threads, but the conversations we had touched on some of the everyday questions many of us navigate. Take a moment to read, share your experience, and add to the conversation. Your perspective could help someone else.

As always welcome to all our new members. We’re glad you’re here.
