Merry Christmas! I hope your day is everything you want it to be.

This weekend we’re entering the part of the year where motivation is low, social batteries are fragile, and sweatpants feel legally binding.

The good news is you don’t have to do much to feel human again. You just have to show up somewhere with other people and let the rest take care of itself.

These are five easy, no-pressure ways to ease back into community this weekend.

A big thank-you to this week’s sponsors, Google Adsense and The Feed. Clicking their links directly supports this newsletter

This newsletter began as a love letter to Hanover, a way to celebrate the people, stories, and small moments that make this town feel like home.

A heartfelt thank-you to the 🌱 Founding Supporters of Heart of Hanover:
