Only thing I have is what I heard not to long ago. Gardening is the process of learning to kill things less. August is the end of most growing season I would just a local gardening group to see what works in your area.

1) start to garden stuff you like, don’t go overboard at first
2) download the Planta app to help you track when to water or feed your plants.
3) sing to your plants, they love it.
Keep it simple and have lots of fun!

I have US and Can. HR designations and about 3 yrs in HR in Canada. I'm currently in a process improvement role in healthcare, but really want to work in HR.

I may have the opportunity to work in a quality lead role with my current employer, but I plan to move back to the states in the next few years and want to stay marketable. I'm searching fervently for remote HR roles that may also offer US experience. I'd appreciate your thoughts!
