I’ve just spent a magical two weeks learning in residence with some of the most amazing people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. The kindness, sincerity, courage, and brilliance of whom have both humbled and inspired me.

We have challenged and supported each other through an intense time of self-discovery, learning and growth. We have laughed together, cried together, rumbled with one another and found healing in each other. We have emerged as a community; individually, each of us stronger and more resilient; collectively, unstoppable.

As I leave this first residency behind me, and return to the complexity of life, I do not do it alone. I have the wind of 39 beautiful souls at my back, and the shine of an entire community to light my way.

#cohortstrong, thank you for the privilege of sharing this journey with you.
