Dear Rootchi Women,

Yom Kippur is a day of quiet reflection… We fast, we look at the past year to learn from our mistakes, we ask for forgiveness from those we may have hurt, and we contemplate the coming year and how we wish to enter it.

This past year was so challenging, but I learned so much. I gained a deeper understanding about who my partners are. I learned a lot about my business and its needs. I learned about the people I don’t want around me—and how precious life is. Working under pressure and with fear took a toll on all of us. But what a great opportunity to learn!

I want to keep asking myself: Do I live the life I desire? Do I show gratitude to those I love? Do I take care of myself?

Wishing you all a very good week. We are all together in this!

Yael
