🥧 Whisk & Wellbeing: Pies and Thanks! 🥧
Our Empower Cooking Series brought all the cozy vibes this week as employees gathered after work to whip up holiday pies that show gratitude in every bite.

Under the expertise of Kristina, our incredible Culinary Director, the team learned the art of balancing flavors and textures while baking three festive favorites:
✨ Dutch Apple
✨ Bourbon Pumpkin
✨ Classic Pecan

From laughter in the kitchen to hands-on learning (and plenty of delicious smells!), it was an evening filled with fun, connection, and a whole lot of thanks. ❤️

Here’s to good food, great company, and moments that warm the season!

This week, Guardian Angels leaders gathered at the beautiful 21st Century Event Center in Rogers for a full day of learning, connection, and growth. The focus? Equipping our managers with the tools to lead with purpose — working with team strengths, navigating generational differences, building trust, and having those important (but sometimes tough) conversations.

We were inspired by two incredible speakers and a powerhouse panel of local leaders who shared their wisdom and experience:
🌟 John Houlton – Chairman of the Board, First Bank Elk River
🌟 Ginger Jungling – Marketing & Events Manager, Elk River Area Chamber of Commerce
🌟 Jessica Barthel – Owner, Zoom Room Dog Training
🌟 Sarah Johnson – Catering Coordinator, Rush Creek Golf Club

Together, the room represented more than 250 years of leadership experience — a powerful testament to the dedication, passion, and expertise that drive Guardian Angels forward every day.

It was a day filled with insight, laughter, and leadership in action — a reminder that when we invest in our people, we strengthen our mission.
