As July settles in, it is a natural time to embrace what this season does best: Invite us to slow down.

Rest is not the absence of productivity but a key part of what makes it sustainable. Whether you indulge in a quiet moment outside, a slower morning, or any other sort of small break, those moments are not wasted — they are worthwhile.

As we move through this month, what is one way you are allowing yourself to rest and recharge this summer? Feel free to share it in the comments. We would love to hear what that looks like for you.

June is filled with moments that remind us how courage, innovation, and a little bit of daring can leave a lasting mark on history. Here are a few milestones we are reflecting on this month:

🚀 June 18, 1983 - Sally Ride became the first American woman in space, launching aboard the Space Shuttle Challenger as a mission specialist. Out of more than 8,000 applicants, she was one of only six women selected for NASA's 1978 astronaut class.

🏀 June 6, 1946 - The Basketball Association of America was founded at a meeting in New York City, setting the stage for what would eventually become the NBA and for basketball to transform from a regional gym sport into a global phenomenon.

🎥 June 20, 1975 - Stephen Spielberg’s classic “Jaws” premiered. Not only did this movie become one of the first big summer blockbusters at movie theaters, but it also gifted us with one of the most iconic movie soundtracks of all time.

These moments continue to inspire conversations about leadership, equality, creativity, and the lasting impact of a single bold step on the world.

When you’re going through divorce mediation, one important question often comes up: **“What is my pension actually worth?”**

Pensions can feel complicated, but mediation gives you space to understand them clearly and choose the approach that works best for both spouses. Here are the most common ways to determine a pension’s value:

• **Plan Statement or Benefit Estimate** – Your pension provider can give a projection of what your benefit will be at retirement.
• **Marital Portion Calculation** – In New York, only the portion earned during the marriage is typically considered marital property.
• **Actuarial Valuation** – A financial professional can calculate today’s cash value of future pension benefits. This is often used when trading one asset for another.
• **QDRO Review** – If the pension will be divided, a Qualified Domestic Relations Order can outline exactly how benefits will be shared.

In mediation, you’ll review these options together, understand what the numbers mean, and decide on a fair path forward—without unnecessary stress or conflict.

If you’re navigating divorce and unsure how your pension fits into the process, we’re here to help guide you with clarity and compassion.

May is a month of meaningful celebrations, with holidays like Mother’s Day to milestones like graduations, reminding us how quickly the years pass and how the connections we make can shape our lives in unexpected ways. This month, we’re sharing a story that perfectly captures just how small and serendipitous the world can be.

When Megan Lewis was in second grade, she was paired with a high school junior named Suzanne Koziol for a school pen pal assignment. They exchanged letters about favorite foods, hobbies, and future dreams, but, like many childhood projects, the letters were eventually tucked away and forgotten.

Three decades later, Lewis rediscovered those letters in a box of old mementos and looked up her former pen pal, only to realize Koziol was now Dr. Suzanne Koziol Pugh, the physician who delivered her two children. Neither of them knew their connection stretched back to a classroom assignment in the 1990s. As Pugh shared, “It really made us feel like I was meant to take care of her and we were meant to play a role in each other’s lives.”
