It is so easy to forget you have "enough." Here on Linkedin we're all in constant pursuit of MORE. More revenue! More pipeline! More customers! Success is often measured by whoever has makes the most dollars, raises the biggest round of funding, or has the biggest exit. In the pursuit of "more," it's easy to insulate ourselves from actual suffering. It's suffering that takes us out of the pursuit of "more," brings us back to reality, and helps us remember what's most important. Serving dinner to families at the Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Intermountain Area, Inc. was a great reminder that I have "enough." Right here in Salt Lake City, families spend every waking hour sitting at the bedsides of their children who are fighting to overcome scary diseases and medical struggles. These families are grateful for a warm meal, a kind smile, and another day of hope. Revenue, pipeline, exits—they all matter—but they will never represent "enough." What do you do to remind yourself you have enough? (I highly recommend signing up to serve these families. I can't think of many people who need it more.)

Babies thrive when their caregivers thrive. Dyadic care looks beyond the child, acknowledging the essential co-regulation that occurs between caregivers and infants. By involving parents and caregivers in every step, dyadic care provides a holistic approach that works within the family system, helping all members gain the skills they need for success. This comprehensive approach, which acknowledges the unique circumstances of each family, can be applicable to any program babies and their families come into contact with, and is especially impactful in pediatric settings and early intervention.

In their new Forefront article, Vivek A. Ashok, Laura Bricklin, and Anireddy Reddy from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia discuss how state Medicaid organizations must encourage clinicians to prioritize firearm injury prevention. "As a general pediatrician and two pediatric intensivists, we witness firsthand the impact of firearm violence on our patients, families, and communities. Authors Reddy and Bricklin, pediatric critical care physicians at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), care for children with gunshot wounds. Many of these children do not survive, and those who heal in the intensive care unit are left with life-altering injuries and trauma. Some go on to see author Ashok, a general pediatrician, who witnesses the profound impact of these injuries on the mental health of the child, siblings, family members, and wider community. A common refrain runs through our minds: “This could have been prevented.”" Read the full article here: https://bit.ly/3ZhfW4J
