We think this is an essential question because so often there is a disconnect between what matters to us and what the world thinks. We hope these conversations help more people open up about what truly matters to them – regardless of how visible it might be on the outside.

What I’m most proud of building—behind the scenes—is my health. For the past year, I’ve shown up for myself by going to the gym five days a week and committing to strength training. It’s not something I post about much, but it’s completely changed how I feel in my body and in my life. Read more>>

Honestly, I’m most proud of building myself — all while building my business, raising my children, and nurturing my relationship with my husband. It’s one thing to grow a business from the ground up, but doing that while also unlearning old patterns and learning how to show up for myself has been the deeper, more personal journey. Read more>>

If I’m honest, the thing I’m most proud of doesn’t have anything to do with medals or podiums. It’s who I’m becoming when nobody’s looking.

Great question! People see the beautiful weddings, the happy couples, and the seamless events—but what they don’t see is what I’m most proud of building. Behind the scenes, my kids are right there with me—watching, helping, learning. They see me handle pressure, solve problems, treat others with respect, and stay calm when things don’t go as planned. And yes, there are moments I get frustrated. Read more>>
