Happy Friday!! It's time for #FridayBragBucket! - what brags do you have? What have you accomplished in the past week(s) that you're proud of?
Also, reminder - registration closes today for the Amplify Mentoring Circles! So if you haven't registered, make sure to do it!! 🙂
It's silly, but; I received my first badge two weeks ago and my second one today. I then got sick and it's my first time logging back in. I however, am exited to move forward through various trails. Be well.
Dear Friends:
Many folks in this ecosystem know I was a foster parent for many years and have parented children who have encountered significant trauma -- including separation from their families of origin. Believe me when I say this trauma cuts deep and never goes away.
I realize we may not all share the same political inclinations, but I would like to invite those who share my concerns about the treatment of immigrant children who are being separated from their families to break the silence.
Martin Luther King, Jr. once said "Let us realize the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”
Change will not happen overnight, but let us together hold hope that this injustice will not continue much longer.

So...did I mention I JUST WALKED IN NEW YORK FASHION WEEK??? 😱
Last week, I was HONORED to walk the runway with incredible individuals impacted by breast cancer for the groundbreaking AnaOno x Cancerland NYFW show benefiting Metavivor! 💗
