What's a stat that scares you coming into 2025?
This is one that sticks with me - but it's not one I'm going to run from. Tackling this reality is going to be one of my primary objectives this year, because nonprofits are the backbones of our communities.

"Being enthusiastic is worth 25 IQ points"
I heard this quote on a podcast in December and I've been thinking a lot about it ever since. As a researcher, I don't feel comfortable putting much empirical stock behind it. As a human? I'm a big fan.

My daughter now won’t even consider going to sleep unless we give her a literal wall of books, so yea, I think she’s going to be alright.

11 weeks ago, I tore my Achilles and asked my community for athletic therapist recommendations. The recommendations for Teresa at The Armoury just felt different, and 11 weeks later, I’m so grateful for everything she’s done in my recovery

"Actions have consequences."
It's something we're taught early, but so often we're taught that a negative action is met with a negative outcome.
It's important to remember that positive actions have positive consequences too, and we don't talk about that part nearly enough.

Real talk:
Are we all just going to blow right past the fact that Spot’s mom is raising him in a home with a grizzly, a crocodile, a lion, and a boa and her biggest concern is him eating his dinner?
That seems irresponsible at best and fully illegal at worst. #SomeoneSaveSpot

Exactly two months after a full Achilles tear and I’m officially out of the boot and doing lunges.
They may not be the prettiest or steadiest lunges I’ve ever done, but the comeback is officially on!

I’m exactly 8 weeks out from a full Achilles tear and this morning I’m officially walking around the house without a boot.
Still a long ways to go, but wow does it feel good. Huge shoutout to Teresa at The Armoury for helping me get to this point so confidently!

Hi everyone!
It felt time to make the switch. My name is Dave, @dave__whiteside over on Twitter. Some things about me:
▪️ I love using data to make communities healthier
▪️ I have the cutest 18-month old in the world
▪️ I love all things hope and gratitude
I'm hoping to post about all of that here!
