Today's Encouragement: Riders Up!

Riders Up! ... Simone Biles will be calling the "Riders Up!" command at today's Kentucky Derby 2025. "Riders Up" serves as the signal for jockeys to mount their horses in preparation for the race. 

Editor's note (from Louisville, KY): What if we were to start each workday with a personalized "Riders Up!" command? It means we're ready. Prepared. Skilled and equipped to adjust to whatever unexpected twists and turns and challenges we encounter. Yet for us as hospice professionals, beating out competition should be less important. "Riders Up?" Yes! Our job is to help patients and families reach their own Finish Lines, in their own space and time.
