As we head into Thanksgiving week, our team will be taking a short break from our regular videos and social media content to rest, reflect, and celebrate.

This season carries deep meaning for me. It marks one year since my dad passed, and over these past twelve months, I’ve been reminded of how closely loss and gratitude sit beside each other. In the midst of healing, I watched my son step onto the TEDx stage and my daughter graduate from college—two beautiful milestones that filled this year with joy, and hope.

For the first time in a long time, my family is spending Thanksgiving away from home. And in this new setting, I’m reminded that gratitude isn’t tied to a place—it’s tied to perspective. There have been many blessings woven through this year, both big and quiet, and I’m choosing to honor them all.

Thank you for being part of this community. Your support, your engagement, and the work we’re doing together continue to inspire me every day.

Wishing you and your loved ones a restful, meaningful, and joy-filled Thanksgiving. We’ll be back next week, refreshed and excited for what’s ahead.
