    What was it like to practice mindfulness? If this is a practice for you already, what was something new you understood in practicing during Earth Month?

    It's as simple as 5 deep breaths, focusing on nothing but your breath... everyone has time for that.

    How does practicing a work-life balance create a more sustainable life for you? How might it contribute to sustainability more broadly?

    It's a marathon not a sprint - taking 10 minutes to myself a few times a day leaves me charged up for the long run. 

    Less career burnout at a societal scale means more productive and happier workers! Happier society = healthier society.

    What one thing will you do right away to reduce your waste? What is the second thing you will do?

    What was the tastiest meatless or vegan meal you ever had or had recently? Did you make it? Can you share a recipe?

    My go-to is a brown rice pilaf with lentils. High protein count, filling and pretty cheap. Sautee your choice of veggies and serve with falafel. Add hummus, sriracha, harissa, whatever sauce floats your boat.
