Links and Show Notes: Checked Connections
- James ✅ - Without sounding too Catholic about it, it has been two years since my last connection. I had to go and search the podcast transcripts for panda references. I said then that I was taking a break for family health reasons, and I guess I get to give myself a green checkmark for successfully taking the time and saying no to lots of things. But I could never say no to you, Kathy, and so I’m back.
- Kathy ✅🟨❌ - complete projects for state
