When we received military orders to Florida, I was heartbroken. I loved my life in California. I had a career that brought me an abundance of joy and purpose; My kids were connected and loved-up by family and close friends. I was living the dream, entrenched in triathlon culture…
I think everyone needs one person. I have been blessed for over three-fourths of my life to have two. I was lucky to meet them in the fifth grade when my Dad’s job in the Air Force relocated us after the Christmas break. Lucky for me, because I was a new kid at a new school…
I hope everyone is lucky enough to have at least one person in their lifetime who allows them to shine. By the grace of God, I experienced it through a beautiful soul. What’s more, I had the privilege to guide her on a journey, beautifully captured here, heading toward her first…

I hope everyone finds at least one friend who will be their biggest cheerleader but will also call them out on their crap. I have been blessed to have two of them in my life. They are the first to sing my praises but never hesitate to be my truth tellers…
Find a friend who never lets you do the thing alone. I have been lucky enough to have two of these people. There is no shenanigan they aren’t down for exploring. When you find this kind of friend, hold on tight!
The older I get the more I have learned what real strength looks like. The women I admire most are the ones who reach out a hand to help the women to their left and right rise alongside them. They aren’t threatened by another woman’s success, rather they celebrate her…
