I hadn't seen this before. This is pretty remarkable. Earth and Moon in one NASA photo. ht @astrokatie.com

Earth and Moon from DSCOVR NASA's Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite captured this unique view of the Moon as it moved in front of the sunlit side of Earth last month. This view shows the fully illuminated “dark side” of the moon that is never visible from Earth. Ian Regan processed this version of the image to account for the Moon's motion.

Here’s the trap I see all the time. Someone’s capable. Someone’s ready. But they’re waiting to feel confident first. And that moment never quite arrives. Listen to this 2 minute Quick Spoon from People Soup via the link in the first comment.

This week’s Friday Towards Move is taking me outside of my comfort zone. I’m heading to a big Tech Conference in Sevilla. This move is in service of connection — with a healthy side order of courage. Small move. Real stretch. That’s the spirit of the Friday Towards Move Club. #FridayT

Friday Towards Move Club – 13 March 2026 My small move this week is to cycle at least 2km. 🚲 Not far. Not fast. Just enough to get moving. What’s your small move today? Read move via the link in the first comment. #TowardsMove #ACT #SmallSteps #FridayTowardsMoveClub

A thought from my latest People Soup conversation with Miranda Birch: Listening is becoming a rare workplace skill. Not because people don’t care. But because we’re distracted. I’m curious: What helps you feel genuinely listened to at work?

It's a free club, launched last week. Every Friday we make a small move in the direction of something that matters to us. We might share it, or we might just hold it gently. Look out for updates in the next episode of People Soup, landing tomorrow.
