The Round Up 3.27.20

How do we make sense of all that is happening in the world? In these moments of uncertainty, I look for comfort in things like good reads, homemade banana bread, and founders who inspire me. Until we can gather and celebrate again, I want to highlight some of the amazing humans moving me forward right now.
