Finding the good in bad situations &#8211; like looking for a phoenix rising from the ashes &#8211; has often helped me stay positive when it felt like the world was burning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2020 felt a lot like that. From a global pandemic to murder hornets, to event cancelations, and personal struggles, 2020 was a difficult year for many, if not most, of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We pivoted so much and so often it felt like we were constantly reinventing ourselves, our businesses, and our community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So what good things did I find in 2020? I discovered a deeper love for WordPress &#8211; and the WordPress community &#8211; that I ever imagined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Join me as I share the good things that have come from a trying time, and how I think we can move forward in a globally-positive way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Preferred Pronouns: she\/her Michelle Frechette is the Head of Customer Success at GiveWP.
