Family Meeting: Internal vs. External Validation
Welcome to Family Meeting! We hope this weeks newsletter catches you as you prep for a fun way to ring in the New Year, whether that’s a quiet night in or out on the town :)
If you’re new to Family Meeting, we recommend heading over to this article to become acquainted with the Structure of our Family Meetings.
Last week, we sent out some reflection questions on creating your Family Vision for 2024. If you haven’t already done so, we recommend adding that to your quality family time at some point this week!

Let’s dive into some discussion questions!
