Cadre Today : Evening Edition

Hi, Cadre Sphere, it is Shannon from Cadre. It is Monday evening at 8:10pm I am trying number two here. I'm going live tonight with Cadre today evening edition. And I am here tonight to end your night together in community. So for those of you who don't know me, my name is Shannon. I am part of the Cadre team. I'm someone who lives with anxiety, cptsd and I parent a child with autism. And I say all of those things so that you know that whatever you are living through, you are not alone in it. So whatever life experience you've got.

So this is a time of the day where we close the day together. It's an end of day check in. Not everyone out in the world has family systems. Not everyone in the world has communities surrounding them. And so we are here to be that for you. For those who do not have access to those types of support. We want to be that person who says, I see you, you're not alone. And I want to say, how was your day? So that is my question right now. How was your day? You can type it, you can write it down and read it out loud, honey.

Okay? Is this yours? My son is here. Yes, baby, you can take it, honey. Wait, is this yours? Why, yes, honey, go ahead. Sorry. That's okay. I love. All right, I'll see you in a minute. Okay. I'm sorry. That's real life happening. At least I said I'm a caregiver. And so that is someone who I'm closing my day with. Okay? So you can write it down and read it to yourself. You can type it, or you can just be here with us together at the end of this day. So all of it counts. Everything we're doing right now together counts.

So I'm going to take a deep breath and be here with you in this moment and just say, how was your day? Really? How was your day? And I'm going to sit here with you in some quiet so that if you're watching this later and you are feeling alone, if you wake up in the middle of the night and you need to be surrounded by a human presence, that's what this is for. And I think that we're having some technical difficulties and that's okay. And so I just want to really reiterate for anyone who's watching this later that you are not alone.

We care about how your day was. It might be a 1, it might be a 10, it might be something fantastic happened today that you've been wishing and waiting for, or it might be some news you got that you wish you didn't receive. And I just want to let you know that whatever it is is human and normal and we're here for it. I'm just going to take a deep breath together with each other and then I just want you to think about one word that you want to take with you into tomorrow. So whether you had a one day or a ten day, or a five day or a six or two, what's one word you want to take into your Tuesday?

It might be survive. It might be thrive. It might be move, it might be cry. And those are all good answers, depending on where you are in your life right now and what you're going through. But what I want to say to you right now is thank you for ending your day with us, with me, with people here in the Cadre sphere. This counts. This is connection. And you deserve it. And you are part of this thing we call a Cadre sphere. So thank you for being here. I'll see you again tomorrow night as we wrap the day together.

And if you're watching this later and you want to put in the comments, what was your one word? We'd love to hear it. So thank you, Cadre Sphere. Thanks for being here together and being part of this community. And we will see you back here again tomorrow night.
