✅ What we’ve learned from mistakes, misunderstandings & unexpected chaos
✅ How to recover with grace when things go off the rails
✅ Navigating tricky situations without throwing anyone under the bus
✅ Why sharing stories builds empathy, resilience & communityCome laugh, reflect, and connect (no costumes required, but highly encouraged!)
