Jennifer Adams has always had a penchant for older things. Vintage photographs of strangers, cabinet cards and historic homes — all these items and their stories of the past draw her into their hidden world. This is partly what drew her to restore and reside in the historic Butternut Hill property in Terre Haute.

But nothing prepared Adams for the journey she would take when she discovered an old trunk in the depths of the attic of her former Lafayette home containing nearly 400 handwritten love letters from the early 1930s.

"If you put down your phone long enough to pick up this magazine (or have found yourself browsing the online version), I want to say thank you.

Check out this beautiful winter photo by Mike Lunsford!

Undeterred by harsh weather, a non-breeding white-throated sparrow visits a frosty limb near the photographer’s home in January. Cheerful on the coldest of days, white-throated sparrows are known to sing even on moonlit nights. These birds adapt their diets to the season, and in the winter they can be commonly found at feeders, particularly if black oil sunflower seeds and millet are available. Although they seem abundant, white-throated sparrows have declined by about a third since the mid-1960s; they nest at, or just above, ground level.

There’s a lot of research out there that suggests that people who make New Year’s resolutions are going to fail. In fact, most people will quit by the end of January. Only a small percentage of people who make resolutions will actually achieve them.

As a person who has “been there, done that,” Mary Riley is here to propose that instead of making a big resolution that you likely won’t keep, maybe this year break up your goals into small, manageable items that you can actually accomplish.

Roopam Harshawat, president and CEO of Harsha Behavioral Center, is one of our six 2023 Women in Business. She also graces the cover of this edition for us!

In the early 2000s, no inpatient hospitalization was available for children and adolescents. Families had to take their children out of town to seek services. To fill this gap, Harshawat, along with her husband, Dr. Paras Harshawat, opened Harsha Behavioral Center.

When asked about what advice she'd give to young professional women, she said, "Have confidence in yourself, pursue what interests you, and embrace challenges without fear."

Roopam Harshawat is the president and CEO of Harsha Behavioral Center, a freestanding acute psychiatric care hospital established in August 2008 in Terre Haute.
