So Much to Be Thankful For

This Thanksgiving, I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to reconnect with my life’s mission. I’ve had the space to pause, slow down, and reflect on the past five years, carving out time for self-care and, most importantly, for grieving.

This year has been a mix of change, challenges, and meaningful connections. Through it all, I’ve been amazed by the speed of my growth—how I’ve gained momentum in realizing long-held dreams and now feel ready to pursue new ones. It hasn’t always been easy. There have been shifts in priorities, moments of letting go, and times of uncertainty. But through it all, I’m incredibly grateful for the unwavering support of my family and friends, who’ve helped me navigate the ups and downs and encouraged me to keep going. I’m so close to my destination.

I’m also profoundly thankful for the gift of healing. Strengthening my emotional intelligence and becoming more mindful of my patterns and triggers has had a lasting impact. Overcoming my past and growing beyond my traumas has been one of the greatest gifts I could ask for. I’m proud of the progress I’ve made—learning to manage old wounds, break free from reactive cycles, and stop repeating the same mistakes. This year, I’ve embraced a calmer, more relaxed version of myself—and that has been the most precious gift. I’m committed to nurturing this peace and holding onto it for the long haul.

Another major blessing this year has been owning my own company and working alongside such incredible business partners. Together, we’ve reached important milestones and built an amazing ecosystem of strategic partners. I’m filled with gratitude for the trust and support I’ve received, especially from those who’ve committed to this journey with me.

While I never imagined I’d become a CEO, this journey has been priceless. It’s been a path of unexpected learning, growth, and discovery. I never thought I’d be doing what I am today, but I’ve come to realize I’m capable of so much more than I ever imagined. And this is just the beginning.

Last but certainly not least, I’m grateful for the time I’ve been able to spend with my family, friends, and furbabies. Improving my domestic skills (and hopefully soon my driving skills!) has been rewarding. Spending more time by the sea, where I truly feel at home, has been the best part of all. I’m thrilled to unfold the next chapters of my life with more grit, resilience, and an open heart—ready to savor the precious experiences, learnings, and adventures that lie ahead.
