Thank you for the birthday wishes! 🩷 I felt a spiritual shift turning 40, stepping into my ✨exceedingly & abundantly✨ season. That I’m here, at this place, starting over, surrounded by so much love, and excited about the future is a blessing I don’t take for granted.

What a gift it is to be present and calm, happy and healthy, covered and protected 💫

I don’t have it all figured out, but I do know what’s important. Thank you to my people who lift me up and remind me who I am 🫶🏾 Thank you for trusting me too.

And shoutout to all the Cancers who are feeling all the things! I’m right there with you 🥲🥳🦀♋️

This is 40 🥂

The summer we joined the Valkyries Founding Guard 💜

I can’t fully describe how special this inaugural season was for us 🥹

We just wanted a shared hobby 🤷🏾‍♀️

Next thing we know, we’re picking out seats, riding Caltrain up to San Francisco a couple nights a week, buying merch and memorabilia, staying long weekends, analyzing the teams, seeing the best players in the world, winning games, making the playoffs, and screaming our heads off with 18K+ fans! 🤣

It was exciting and sometimes exhausting, but we did it, missing only a handful of games all season.

I’m sad it’s over 😭

But we’ll be back next year! (How can you not root for GSV?!) And we’re coming for everything. ⚔️

For now, here’s a collection of selfies from the games and on our way to games. 🤩

Until next season… GO Valks! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 taken in Ballhalla by @bashaolu

I’m pretty sure I just had the best weekend ever 🥰 July 11-14 was a time!

Thanks for all the birthday love. 💙 I’m so lucky and blessed to be part of this crew/fam.

Day 1 in my A’Ones 💗 Took the train up for the Valkyries season opener and it was a night to remember! ✨🪽 We got our inaugural shirts, saw our names on the Founding Guard wall, ate burger dogs 🤷🏾‍♀️, cheered the entire way through the loss 😅, hit the wobble outside of Ballhalla, and left (loudly & drunkenly) analyzing the players and future of this team 😂

This is the beginning of something special. So happy to be part of it. ✌🏾 taken in Chase Center by @bashaolu
