As I reflect on the past year, I am struck by the sheer magnitude of change, challenge, and growth that has unfolded in my life. This has been a year like no other, and while it has not been without its trials, it has also been deeply transformative.

Last December, our family faced a seismic shift when my mother-in-law moved in with us. Shortly thereafter, she was diagnosed with Stage 4 Ovarian Cancer. The news hit like a thunderbolt, rearranging our priorities and forcing us to confront the fragility of life. Our home became a sanctuary of care, resilience, and love as we navigated treatments, emotions, and the weight of the unknown together.

In the midst of this upheaval, I embarked on a journey of personal transformation. Over the year, I lost 35 pounds, a milestone that reflects not just physical change but a deeper commitment to my own well-being. It was not an easy path, but it was one rooted in intention and the understanding that caring for myself allows me to show up more fully for those I love.

Professionally, this year marked my first full year with Here2Elevate, the business I founded. Building something from the ground up is as exhilarating as it is daunting, but each day reaffirmed my belief in its mission and my capacity to grow alongside it. Watching my vision come to life has been a source of immense pride and purpose. The relationships built with the team, The Elevators, have been the pinnacle. Without them, none of this would be happening - further testimony of people within our community who lift us daily and make things bigger, better, and more impactful than we could ever do alone. I am so grateful for each of them.

On the family front, we celebrated a major milestone: my daughter turned 11. It is a joy to witness her becoming her own person—curious, compassionate, and creative. Her growth is a constant reminder of life’s beauty, even in the midst of chaos.



Throughout all of this, my husband has been my unwavering partner. Together, we have weathered the storms and found ways to anchor ourselves in love and resilience. The stress has been real, but so too has the reward of coming through it stronger, more united, and more grateful for what we have.

As we turn the page to this new year, I am filled with a sense of possibility. Starting today, we have 365 days ahead of us—a blank canvas to fill with intention, grit, and love. While the future remains unwritten, I am committed to facing it with open eyes, an open heart, and the belief that even the hardest days hold seeds of growth and grace.

Here’s to a year of courage, connection, and purpose. May it be one where we all find the strength to rise, the wisdom to cherish the moment, and the love to carry us through.
