My stand for the empowerment of urban youth through art has shifted to lessons via Zoom instead of in a studio setting. I am enjoying my time spent at home while missing face-to-face social interactions. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-half_column wp-image-3968\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/magazine\/sites\/13\/2020\/05\/Taylor-Booth-3-500x558.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"558\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/magazine\/sites\/13\/2020\/05\/Taylor-Booth-3-500x558.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/magazine\/sites\/13\/2020\/05\/Taylor-Booth-3-269x300.jpeg 269w, https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/magazine\/sites\/13\/2020\/05\/Taylor-Booth-3-364x406.jpeg 364w, https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/magazine\/sites\/13\/2020\/05\/Taylor-Booth-3.jpeg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>To make up for it, I\u2019m participating in Zoom conferences, co-working groups, and happy hours! The pandemic has paradoxically made everybody touchable as we\u2019re all navigating what\u2019s next together. In one weekly meetup, industry leaders discuss what\u2019s to come for events like corporate fundraisers, concerts, and sports. Another weekly Zoom includes hundreds of participants from around the world, keeping an \u201coverview effect\u201d alive in my mind.<\/p>\n<p>I rode my rollercoaster of emotions, and I now see this time as an opportunity to expand my contribution as a leader. The globe is going through a paradigm shift, and we are all capable of creating the future. I also bought six chicks and planted a veggie garden to stay grounded.
