The Kaley to my Kaleigh. The vibrancy, excitement, and genuine love Kaley brings to the world is intangible. Finding her has been one of my greatest achievements in this life because she shows me what it is to be free. Through her constant support, words of encouragement, and fostering a space of healing friendship, she makes our days brighter.

To think that some of my greatest connections in the world came from me walking up to strangers is pretty unreal. She keeps me grounded while also constantly lifting me up. I appreciate every moment we get to spend together because to me she is family; comfort, support, and sweater weather warmth. Talia makes every day better with her thoughtfulness and light.

I will forever be grateful to that INZO hoodie for bringing us together. I thank the universe for allowing all the pieces to fall into place for our friendship to blossom. I love that Madison truly SEES people and offers kindness to everyone surrounding her. Madison's humor, genuine nature, and human-ness create space for people to be themselves around her. She has inspired me to lead with more self-compassion, confidence, and silliness.

When I finally got to meet Sadie, I could immediately feel her welcoming energy. It seems like we have just begun, but I cannot wait to spend more time together dancing, laughing, and making memories. She has been a constant support for David, he values your connection deeply. I feel grateful to be absorbing another sibling, and better yet… a SISTER?!?!?

Ryan has been one of my best friends for over 15 years. We have had some incredibly transformative moments together through thick and thin.

Through a wild coincidence of Ashtyn and Ryan connecting, we have spent years playing games and traveling together. Ashtyn continually shows up as a strong friend and has a knack for keeping a room light and fun.

Keaton is another friend who compliments the energy of each room he enters. Through gaming, traveling, and heartfelt conversation, we find laughter and support in our friendship.

I have always said that my brother is the best boy I know. His empathy, kindness, humor, and attentive presence create a space for those around him to feel loved and accepted. It has been my highest honor to be his sister.
