| People’s reactions speak volumes. |
| Asking random strangers questions has become a fun way to utilize social media in the 21st century, with viral gems like “the corn kid” and couples sharing their love stories delighting audiences. But one woman in New York has a unique twist on the “asking strangers” trend that has people inspired to see the beauty in everyone. |
| Tanya Sangani, whose social media content focuses on kindness, asks random people in New York City one question: What’s it like to be beautiful? That’s it. So simple. But the way people respond to that question speaks volumes about how they’re used to—or not used to—seeing themselves. |

| The Prospector Theater has paid $26 million in wages to employees with disabilities—and sparked a movement. |
| RJ Mitte, best known for his portrayal of Walter White Jr. in Breaking Bad, has never shied away from using his platform to advocate for inclusion and opportunities for people with disabilities. Recently, he attended the Prospector Theater’s 10th anniversary gala in Ridgefield, Connecticut, where he celebrated the theater’s innovative approach to meaningful employment and shared how the arts can create transformative change. |
| The Prospector Theater, a nonprofit cinema, has a clear mission: to provide competitive and fulfilling jobs to people with disabilities. This “sparkly beacon of hope” stands as a testament to what’s possible when a community commits to inclusion. The theater was founded by Valerie Jensen, who drew inspiration from her sister, Hope, born with Down syndrome. Jensen’s determination to create opportunities for people with disabilities led to the transformation of a historic Ridgefield, Connecticut building into a state-of-the-art, inclusive workplace. |

| It was developed by famed psychologist Dr. John Gottman. |
| Have you ever wondered whether you fight too much or are snippy too often with your significant other? Conflict is normal in long-term relationships, but when do too many negative interactions become harmful? |
| The interesting (and helpful) thing is that a ratio reveals the number of negative versus positive interactions one should have with one’s spouse. The ratio was created by Dr. John Gottman, who known for conducting studies in which he and his team could predict whether a couple would get divorced with 94% accuracy. |

| That’s a dad standing up for his kids. |
| Over the past few years, there has been a lot of talk about nepo babies, the children of the rich and famous who use their privilege to get elite positions in the entertainment world. As people become more conscious of the advantages of the rich and powerful, there has been a backlash against those who some feel haven’t earned their positions. |
| That’s why people applaud actor-author Henry Winkler for protecting his daughter, Zoe, from becoming a reality TV star. Winkler played one of the biggest roles in TV history, Arthur Fonzarelli, on “Happy Days” from 1974 to 1984. In 2018, he won his first Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for portraying acting teacher Gene Cousineau on “Barry.” |
