September is home to some truly remarkable moments in history. From breakthroughs in medicine to the furthest reaches of space, these are the kinds of milestones that remind us of what becomes possible when human ingenuity, courage, and determination come together.

Here are three we are celebrating this month:

🫀 September 2, 1952 - At the University of Minnesota, the University of Minnesota surgical team (Drs. F. John Lewis, C. Walton Lillehei, Mansur Taufic, and Richard Varco) performed the first successful open-heart surgery using a technique called hypothermia, often called “code chill” or “code cool,” to temporarily stop the heart's blood flow.

🚀 September 5, 1977 - NASA launched the Voyager 1 spacecraft, which has since become the most distant human-made object ever to travel through space. Onboard is the Golden Record, a carefully assembled message from Earth intended for any extraterrestrial life that may find it.

🏗️ September 30, 1935 - In the middle of the Great Depression, construction on the Hoover Dam commenced, a monumental feat of engineering that was finished two years ahead of schedule.
These moments continue to inspire us to think bigger, reach further, and never underestimate what is possible.

As summer slowly gives way to fall, we are reminded that change can feel a little easier when we are surrounded by strong friendships. This month, we are sharing a story about five friends whose bond has proven that no matter how much life changes, some connections only grow stronger with time.

Since 1982, John Wardlaw, Mark Rumer-Cleary, Dallas Burney, John Molony, and JD Dickson have been returning to the same cabin on Copco Lake in California to recreate the same photo. The same five friends, the same spot, every five years.

What started as a spontaneous snapshot taken when they were 19 has become a four-decade tradition that neither distance nor time has been able to interrupt. This story serves as a beautiful reminder that strong friendships are built around showing up for one another, year after year, no matter what life brings.

August has that funny way of keeping us guessing. One day, it can feel like peak summer, and you’re reaching for your go-to iced drink. Next, a chill in the air makes you believe fall might be right around the corner, making a warm drink sound pretty perfect.

So we want to know, where do you stand as we head into the final stretch of summer?

August has a way of reminding us that change is already on its way. Summer is not quite over, but the days are already hinting at something new — earlier sunsets, a slight cool in the morning, and a quiet sense that a fresh season is just around the corner.

It can be tempting to hold on to what is familiar and comfortable, but this month is a gentle nudge to look forward instead. This is the moment to channel something new: a goal, a habit, or a mindset shift that moves you toward the next chapter with intention.

As we move through August, what is one thing you are ready to build or step into? Feel free to share it in the comments. We would love to hear what you are looking forward to.

August is filled with moments that remind us of what can happen when someone dares to do something never done before, moving the rest of the world forward with them. Here are a few milestones we are celebrating this month:

🌊August 6, 1926 - Gertrude Ederle became the first woman to swim across the English Channel, completing the 21-mile crossing in 14 hours and 31 minutes. Not only did she make history, but she also beat the existing men's record by nearly two hours.

🎵August 12, 1877 - Thomas Edison invented the phonograph, giving the world its first device capable of recording and playing back sound. The first words captured were a simple recitation of "Mary Had a Little Lamb.”

📺August 29, 1997 - Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph founded Netflix in Scotts Valley, California, starting out as a simple DVD rental service by mail. Netflix eventually grew into one of the most influential entertainment platforms in the world.

These moments continue to inspire conversations about courage, creativity, and the lasting impact of one bold step into the unknown.
