CONNECT!

TURN OFF THE NOISE AND CONNECT DEEPER WITH YOUR PEEPS AND YOURSELF.

Week 3: Challenge Speaker

Adrian Boykin is bringing a message of connection. What does it mean to connect? How can we connect? Connecting with those in our lives can bring about another level of passion and caring for ourselves and those important in our lives. COVID-19 might have brought a change about in connecting but there are still ways to CONNECT.

ACCOUNTABILITY

There has never been a better week in the challenge to connect with your accountabilibuddy! Call them. Ask how they are doing and offer some encouragement and STRONG cheerleader spirit! AND, join the Facebook Community Group to share your moments of connection with your new friends! When we connect, we are STRONG.

Download your tracking sheet and remember to post it in a prominent place. Connect with your accountability buddy to make sure they are doing the same! Go team go!
