What makes reconnecting so powerful is the authenticity those moments allow. We can be open about our struggles and uncertainties with people who truly understand and do not judge. That honesty and connection are what fuel our sense of joy and belonging.

As we approach the holidays and a new year, I want to thank our community for its care of patients, compassion, advocacy, and mentorship. May we all continue to support one another and Choose Joy, intentionally and authentically, every day.
