Good morning and a very happy Sunday to you all. What a delight to be back in your inbox again this week! I (Maddie) hope you’re all well and have had a good week so far. I feel like everyone I speak to lately is feeling a little doom and gloom, and it’s hard not to be when the world is in its current state. So, I want this newsletter to be a nice little escape. Here’s a little uplifting quote for you all.
‘May the flowers remind us why the rain was necessary’.
I remembered this quote on one of my lunchtime walks this week. It was a sunny afternoon after a rainy morning, and I spotted a few gorgeous flowers outside a house. They were all different colours and they were beautiful. It was a nice reminder that even the prettiest of things need some rain to bloom!
Before I jump into our wrap of the week, I just wanted to take a quick moment to thank all of our SDC Rewards members. You know who you are! These members left us some of the most heart-touching reviews this week, and some even made me cry. I would share every single review with you all here if I could, but I simply do not have the space. I just want to share one sentence sent in to us by member @DLHM who said, ‘For me, joining the SDC Rewards membership gives me the feeling of belonging to a wonderful, diverse family.’ If you have the financial means to do so, you too can subscribe to our SDC Rewards premium offering for just $5.99 a month. I know not all of you can do so, and that
is absolutely fine! But if you can, it means the world to Jon, the team and myself.
That’s enough from me! Let’s look at what happened across Australia and around the world this week:
