I want 'to be” a woman who empowers other women– and teaches them about the power in the HUDDLE. I want 'to be” vulnerable and courageous as often as possible. I want 'to be” an ever better friend, partner, daughter, sister. I want 'to be” increasingly present which means putting my damn phone down more. I want 'to be” someone who approaches her day always through the lens of gratitude. I want 'to be” a leader who practices what she preaches.
