Lately, our team has been reflecting on something powerful: the difference between a To-Do List and a Ta-Da List.
A To-Do List can feel endless—always adding pressure, stress, and that feeling of “not enough.” But a Ta-Da List? That’s where we pause, look back, and celebrate the work, the progress, and the wins—big or small—that we often overlook in the rush of advocacy.
Through the Partners in Policy Making Program with UNM Center for Development and Disability, we’re learning just how important it is to recognize our efforts, stay mindful, and embrace a more positive lens. This program is teaching Hole In The Heart to be more intentional, more deliberate, and more appreciative of the journey we're on.
And wow… our Healthcare Advisory Board continues to be such a huge source of strength for us. They’ve come alongside us with purpose and heart, helping shape the meaningful steps we’re taking for CHD families in New Mexico.
✨ Ta-Da! We’re proud of the work we’re doing—and even more excited for what’s ahead.
Here’s to celebrating progress, honoring the process, and remembering that every step forward deserves recognition. 💙
