Mom always says: When we leave this Earth, what will we be remembered for? Our hope: We made a difference. We helped someone in need at the time they needed. We left the places we were better than we found them. We lived a fulfilled life. We experienced love. We were happy. We were at peace.

Waiting patiently to board a flight Mom hears a couple behind her. “Oh! There’s a dog! I didn’t even know it was there!” When Pax and Mom travel she hears that ALL the time! Pax moves quietly through life beside Mom doing his job, many times completely unnoticed by people.

When I was younger I was with Mom through all her medical appointments and she held my paw when she got shots. Now, since I’m older I get shots every month and check ups, she comforts me when I get shots - of course so does peanut butter!

This #MemorialDay, we pause to remember that today is meant to honor the brave men and women who selflessly made the ultimate sacrifice for all our freedom. Let’s commit to be worthy of the heroic actions too many have made for those freedoms we take for granted.

Sunday morning quiet time. I told Mom I love her more than I love napping and peanut butter treatos. And that is a lot. Some days humans need to know your love is unconditional.

Sit with Warriors, the conversation is different. When you surround yourself with warriors—those who are resilient, determined, and fight for what they believe in—you elevate your own mindset. Choose to be around those who challenge you, support you, and inspire you to rise.

"If you find a book you really want to read but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it." We did! ~ Toni Morrison. Mom could have used this book when her journey started. We hope that this book will provide hope and inspiration to anyone looking for it, and also, simply an enjoyable read.

Great leaders don’t set out to be a leader, they set out to make a difference. It’s never about the role, always about the goal. Go into the world and do well. But more importantly, go into the world and do good. Give others hope by being the example. Be a role model not a model of a role.

There is zero shame in identifying as a survivor — but know that in every survivor is a warrior, a fighter, and a leader. You are strong enough to overcome anything that life throws your way. We rise. We fight. We heal. We reach our hand out to help the others find solid ground to stand on.
