12:06:35 From Kelly Copeland : I have a question too!
12:06:50 From Nicki : 7
12:18:07 From Todd Adams : anybody else want to weigh in and support kelly?
12:19:59 From Todd Adams to Hansen, Sarah(Direct Message) : do u want to go after kelly?
12:20:26 From Hansen, Sarah : sure
12:20:36 From Hansen, Sarah to Todd Adams(Direct Message) : oops. sure 🙂
12:28:49 From Millie Hsi (she, her, hers) : The only thing I thought of, Kelly, is to write a letter. First, you’ve done EVERYTHING right, so this was only a thought that came up. I wonder if writing something in a letter to address what your boundaries are might be useful. When you guys talk live, I bet you both go back to the usual dance that you’ve grown up with. When you’re calm and in a good place, you are able to write a compassionate message so that your Dad knows where you’re coming from. I’m wondering if he is able to read that letter from a different place in his heart. You know what I mean?
12:31:11 From Kelly Copeland : I had sent an email initially to explain and that led to the response that he needed space. I’m now at a place where I think it’s not productive to have any discussion with him. But I do think I should write one that I don’t send.
12:31:42 From Sally (she/her) : Sorry have to jump off early and get my kiddo from school 😍thanks for being here
12:32:36 From Millie Hsi (she, her, hers) : Gotcha, Kelly. Like I said, you’ve already done everything right. You are so self aware and conscious about this. Good luck!
12:33:40 From Todd Adams to Nicki(Direct Message) : you want to go after sarah?
12:35:45 From Nicki to Todd Adams(Direct Message) : can do, came on call to offer Jen support. But it has been a tough few days, so community would be nice. But only if there are no questions from others. Also headphone not working so not sure about my sound quality
12:38:57 From Todd Adams to Nicki(Direct Message) : ok 🙂
12:52:53 From Kelly Copeland : I have to drop early – thank you for the support everyone! I needed this. 🙂
12:53:40 From Hansen, Sarah to Todd Adams(Direct Message) : feedback on the pinned speaker thing – I like it. if I do speaker view via zoom Cathy never shows up for me since she’s muted; when I use gallery view I get distracted. so this is perfect!
12:53:58 From Todd Adams to Hansen, Sarah(Direct Message) : thanks so much 🙂
13:03:07 From Millie Hsi (she, her, hers) : I’m afraid that I need to leave bc of a meeting. Hugs to Nicki and to all!
