There is someone who believed in this brand before it was real.
She told me to stop hiding behind it and give it everything. She didn’t get to see me do that. But I’m doing it.
I’ve stepped out of my introverted shell and applied for things I would have never done before. I placed my best foot forward and landed opportunities I never saw coming — all because I focused and did exactly what she told me to do.
This registry — everything I’m about to put into the world — is the promise I’m keeping.
Grief is something else.
November 27. For her.
