A few weeks ago I was invited to speak at the Indianola STEM Symposium and Appreciate Night about why STEM is important (particularly to the audience of mostly high school kids). Hmm — why is STEM important? Why is it important to high school kids? I *accept* that STEM is important — we hear that all the time — but its hard to delineate exactly why its STEM is important.
When it comes to leading a healthy and fulfilling life, it's not just about hitting the gym and eating your veggies. Studies have shown that community and connection play a vital role in our overall well-being, both mentally and physically.
Joining a coworking community can do wonders for your mental well-being by providing a space that fosters and strengthens social connections. It's not just about the physical amenities like a desk, coffee, and Wi-Fi, but rather the built-in network of individuals who can become your friends, support system, or even your future partner (we've seen it happen!).
