Wrapping up @mepsy.bsky.social's #MePsych25. It was a great time at @unidue.bsky.social, filled with friends, scholarship, and good chats over coffee and other drinks. It's amazing to have fit all this in to just a few days; and I'll be weeks unpacking the thoughts and inspiration from it.

#ICA25 was a blast. Good scholarship, tremendous colleagues, divine inspiration, and an unexpected tailgate--the hallmarks of a successful convention. Can't wait to do it all again in 351 days in Cape Town.
