How I got Stronger this week: This was a tough week. I had a super-long way to Tokyo through Seoul and there was a delay so by the time I got to Tokyo, I was really exhausted. And with the exception of the next day, I woke up between 2:40 and 3:20am every day. I was wiped almost every single night. But of course it was also wonderful. I got to connect with my work mates. I worked out two of the days and we spent one day running around Tokyo and doing drumming. I wasn’t feeling my best so it was tough emotionally either but there were moments of joy and learning and most importantly the actual summit was successful, I think. So net net it was a week of getting stronger. I have one more summit to get through and then I can breathe a little bit.
