To a ‘New Normal’ Finding New and CreativeWays to Adapt
A s the coronavirus pandemic rocked the country, many people have had to get creative to adapt to the situation at hand. For my family and for the company, nothing has been business as usual. We’ve had to improvise and figure out how to navigate the “new normal.” In this edition of the newsletter, I want to share a few of the ways we’ve gotten creative as we’ve navigated our daily lives at home and at work. At home, we recently celebrated Kim’s birthday. Last
Kim had a great time and enjoyed her birthday immensely. Connor, Carter, and Codie did a wonderful job making their mom’s birthday special. It goes to show how far a little creativity can go. Who needs the Kentucky Derby? At Campbell Wealth Management, we want to be equally creative and inspiring. We’ve been doing a number of different things, like sending each employee breakfast donuts, coffee, and care packages. We know things like this can go a long way, and when you’ve been working at home for an extended
year, we went big for my wife’s birthday. It was a milestone event, so we decided to go to the Kentucky Derby and cross off one of Kim’s bucket list items. This year, however, we did something completely different. The Kentucky Derby wasn’t even an option, but that didn’t matter. The kids got creative and put something together Kim will never forget — they turned our basement into a restaurant! Well, a restaurant for two, anyway. Our
period of time, it’s important to have reminders that we’re still a team and everyone matters. As a team, we also have a weekly GoToMeeting virtual meeting. All 24 of us gather at our virtual meeting place and use webcams to see and talk to one another. During our Monday meetings, we talk about our past week or weekend and chat about things we’ve been doing, including anything fun we might have going on.
oldest son, Connor, decorated the basement with several candles and other decor. Our daughter, Codie, prepared a menu, and they all set up a table for two, complete with a tablecloth and more candles. They even made up a reservation card, ensuring no one else was seated at our table.
We’ve also continued to put on webinars for our clients. One webinar we held focused on mindfulness and featured Janelle Evans. While she talked about mindfulness, I talked about the wealth side of things, weaving together topics we’ve discussed in the past in this newsletter — health and wealth. We also hosted a Downsizing Tips & Tricks webinar, which I know is a hot topic for many of our clients. I always appreciate learning about ways to declutter and get organized. The challenge is always about
Codie did all the cooking. We started with a shrimp cocktail appetizer and a Caesar salad before moving on to a salmon dish paired with asparagus. For dessert, our chef had prepared a strawberry cheesecake. We learned about the menu from our waiter, Carter, our middle son. He poured wine and gave humorous commentary on each course.

Feeling Renewed at Any Age 2 Ways to Revive Your Life This Summer
If the mercurial spring weather has prevented you from getting out as much as you would have liked these past few months, you might
video game. Trying out new things keeps your brain active. You may even discover a new favorite activity along the way! Pay attention to mental health. Although more years provide more experience and knowledge, sometimes they also come with heavy baggage. The loss of a loved one, trauma, and other struggles can impact your life in later years. This is why it’s good to practice mindfulness. Take some time to focus on the present. Go for a walk and listen to the world around you, feel the fresh air against your skin, fill your lungs, and take in everything you can see. Meditation is also a good way to spend a few minutes to focus on your body in the moment and the things in life that make you happy. Practices like these can help you feel lighter, both physically and emotionally. Growing older doesn’t mean you can’t feel renewed and positive. This isn’t just an impossible idea — it’s a reality. pick up donations or ingredients from donors and to deliver food to people in need, such as the elderly or those with disabilities. Advocate Even if you don’t have time or resources to give, you can become an advocate for important causes around your community. While it might not seem like much, sharing information about local nonprofits on social media can make a genuine difference. Nonprofits need exposure, which is greatly boosted through community support. Sharing useful information about nonprofits — or sharing their posts — increases their visibility so more people will take action.
be feeling a bit of cabin fever about now. Luckily, you can still introduce positive changes to your life that help you feel healthier and younger. Here are two ways to awaken your body and mind. Adopt a new activity. As you get older, it’s not uncommon to drift further from the lifestyle you had in your 20s and 30s. Things have settled down, and you know a bit more about who you are, what you enjoy, and what you’re capable of. With this better understanding, you can make choices more aligned with your true interests and personality. Think about getting involved with a new activity you may have always wanted to try but never had the chance, like yoga or even a Over the past several months, families, businesses, and nonprofits have had to navigate life in this challenging “new normal,” and it can be hard to support your favorite nonprofits when times are tough. Here are a few ways you can help these important entities, even when you don’t have resources to spare right now. Donate While many people donate generously during the holiday season, remember that nonprofits need donations throughout the year, and different nonprofits need different things. A monetary donation can often go a long way, but never feel obligated to give money, especially when your budget may be tight. Instead, consider cleaning out your closet. What clothes, shoes, or other accessories can you part with? What about dishware or small appliances? When you clean out your home and donate unused items, you benefit those in the community who need them most. Volunteer In a time of social distancing, volunteering may be discouraged, but nonprofits still need volunteers to operate. The good news is that many nonprofits need volunteers for positions that maintain social distance, such as driving. Food banks and kitchens need drivers to THE BESTWAYS TO HELP LOCAL NONPROFITS in Challenging Times

Your Guide to the Perfect Virtual Happy Hour It’s Time to Raise a Glass!
If you can’t see your friends in person to clink wine glasses or whiskey tumblers, never fear: A virtual happy hour can bring all of your closest pals right into your living room. The concept is simple. Using online meetup programs like Google Hangouts, Zoom, or FaceTime, you can drink with friends across the country without leaving home.
with whatever f loats your friend group’s boat, whether that’s Kentucky Derby or “Harry Potter” (alcoholic butterbeer, anyone?).
3. Write your menu. While you could just drink whatever beer or half-open bottle of wine is sitting in your respective refrigerators, where’s the fun in that? To really class up your VHH, chat with your friends about the ingredients you all have on hand and come up with a themed cocktail menu to “order” from on the big night. 4. Dress to the nines. Since you’re in the privacy of your own home, you can try out your wackiest, fanciest outfits without public judgment. If you’ve always wanted to try on a Roaring ‘20s flapper dress or a Roman toga, now is the time! Remember, if you go with the “Harry Potter” theme, your bathrobe could easily pass as a wizard’s robe in a pinch. 5. Drink! You’ve planned perfectly, so now it’s time to enjoy each other’s company. Plus, there’s one final perk: Since you’re drinking and giggling on your own couch, you don’t need to worry about a designated driver or an Uber to get you the handful of steps to your bedroom. You’ve got this!
If you don’t want to get out of your sweatpants but want to sip a classy cocktail, this is a win-win. But, you can also ditch the sweats and go all-out for the full virtual happy hour (VHH) experience. Here are five short steps to VHH success. 1. Pick your platform. In the days leading up to your VHH, your friends need to agree on a single platform. Once you choose, make sure everyone has downloaded it and encourage your buddies to do a test run to ensure they can be seen and heard. 2. Theme it up. Every party is better with a theme, and VHH is no exception! Considering the decade, Roaring ‘20s is a popular choice, but you can go

getting started, so I hope this webinar spurred you on. If you'd like to watch a recording of any of the webinars we've hosted recently, then feel free to reach out and we will send you the recording. In these days of uncertainty, we’ve had three groups of people on our minds: our families, our clients, and our team at CWM. We hope everyone is safe and healthy. We hope you’ve been able to stay in touch with your friends and family, no matter where they might be — and that you’ve been able to embrace your own creativity! There is still a lot of uncertainty coming in the months ahead, but we look forward to taking on that challenge as it arrives and finding more new and creative ways to adapt.

LIVINGMUSEUMS Our Nation’s Botanical Gardens
I n 1842, theWilkes Expedition returned from its trek across the Pacific Ocean on behalf of the United States government, having visited parts of Portugal, Brazil, Antarctica, and Fiji. Among the specimens the explorers brought back from their travels were collections of plants gathered from around the world— just what the young nation needed to start its very first botanical garden. GeorgeWashington, Thomas Jefferson, and John Adams had a shared dream of creating a national botanical garden, but the idea didn’t really get off the ground until theWilkes Expedition brought back the garden’s first plants. The United States Botanic Garden (USBG) was established inWashington, D.C., and four of the plants on display there today are part of the original collection brought back from the expedition. Since it’s not always possible to go on vacation and visit far-off gardens, many botanical gardens around the world have started bringing the flora right to you with virtual tours. In addition to the USBG, which offers virtual tours at USBG.gov/take-virtual-tour, check out these other gardens that allow you to explore without having to leave your home.
CHICAGO BOTANIC GARDEN In the spring, the Chicago Botanic Garden staff invited virtual visitors to join them for a nature moment. Garden staff shared images from around the 17 gardens kept there. The Chicago Botanic Garden continues to wow with virtual tours that, thanks to Google’s technology, make you feel as if you’re really there. Start your tour at ChicagoBotanic.org. WADDESDONMANOR AND GARDENS This historic site across the pond in England gives visitors detailed virtual views of theWaddesdonManor and its stunning gardens. Each day at Waddesdon Gardens, the staff designates a specific area as a “Silent Space,” where visitors can go to disconnect and find peace. The Gardens also created a special message for their virtual visitors that we can all take to heart: “We encourage you to find a space in your garden or in your home that feels peaceful and designate a time each day to enjoy a quiet moment of reflection.” To see this historic site for yourself, visitWaddesdon.org.uk.
