We need some good right now — thoughts, ideas, actions and (actual) goods. Here are a few on our radar:

A Good Laugh & A Good Cause

Parks and Recreation is back! One night only—Thursday, April 30 on NBC—the cast will return for a special virtual show to benefit Feeding America's COVID-19 Response Fund.

Good Art

From April 29 to May 3, Capitol Hill Arts District presents its streaming festival celebrating creativity and interdisciplinary arts. (Free to all!)

A Good Hobby

Want to learn something new? Listen to a concert? Bake with your family? Go backstage with a magician? There's something for everyone from airbnb's new Online Experiences brought to you from people and homes all over the world.

"It's Good When America Gets Involved"

"'It took me a long time to find my voice,” said the 82-year-old Madeleine Albright, who didn’t start working in government until she was 39. 'I’m sure not going to be quiet now.'” On her new book, our current crisis, and staying positive.

A Good Reminder

A collection of beautiful moments from pre-pandemic life.

"As a parent yearning for a more equitable future for her children, as a human yearning for the earth to survive more lifetimes, I hope we can remind ourselves that the work does not end here."

NARRATIVE INTELLIGENCE

A conversation about our personal plotlines and how we can write and direct them—even in this time of trauma, grief, and uncertainty.

Wellness

Welcome, 2021!

It's been a year, hasn't it? As we usher in the next year (couldn't come soon enough) here are a few of the conversations with women we loved—actually, can we say we loved every article we published in 2020? Yes, but these will be definite re-reads in 2021.

Oh, you need a holiday read? Might I suggest one of these? From historical fiction, to self-help, and even an amazing children's book sprinkled in for good measure, here are my favorites from 2020.

"With the pandemic, the pause allowed for proper self-assessment and recalibration. I discovered that we truly need to both commit to radical self care and slowdown to speed up."
