As we wrap up the year, we wish you a joyful holiday season and a prosperous 2025! December is a time of celebration, and your friends and colleagues may be observing a variety of holidays—whether it's Hanukkah, Yule, Christmas, Kwanzaa, or none at all. Some may also be navigating feelings of sadness during this time. As we interact with one another, let's be mindful of these differences. There's no one way to celebrate or experience the holidays, and the diversity of traditions and perspectives is what makes this season special.
