Wellness begins with what we put on our plate. By focusing on fresh ingredients, balanced nutrition, and mindful eating, we can enhance our daily functioning and protect long‑term health. Healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated. Simple habits practiced consistently lead to meaningful results.

This month, we are thrilled to feature Christie Gumble, our incredible Deputy Registrar!

Ever wondered what a Deputy Registrar actually does for our community?
Our Deputy Registrar manages official records, processes registrations, and ensures compliance with the North Carolina Office of Vital Records. A major part of the job involves accurately processing birth and death certificates for the county.

Here is what Christie handles behind the scenes:
Assisting homebirth families with establishing birth certificates for their children.
Supporting the Child Fatality Prevention Team and analyzing county statistical data.
Providing administrative assistance across multiple county departments.
Serving as a Childbirth Education Instructor to support expectant parents.
Leading as Co-Chair and Treasurer of the Wellness Committee to support employee health and engagement.

Christie’s Health & Wellness Tip:
"Feeling overwhelmed by your to-do list? Taking just five minutes to meditate lowers cortisol, sharpens your focus, and boosts your mood. Set a timer for five minutes, sit comfortably, close your eyes, and focus entirely on your breathing. When your mind wanders—and it will—gently bring your attention back to your breathing. Even a tiny daily pause can create a healthier you."

Thank you, Christie, for everything you do and for reminding us to prioritize our well-being!

September is World Su***de Prevention Month. Su***de is still too often met with silence, stigma, or shame. We believe that silence should never be the response to someone’s pain. That’s why we’re working tirelessly to change that. This September, you can be the difference.
With one conversation, asking someone how they’re really doing and being ready to truly listen, can save lives. Because here’s what we know: No one has to face this alone. Help exists. Healing is possible. And all it can take is for one person to start a conversation.
