First time facilitating a team—and I got to do it with the absolute gem that is @stella.jchan . Did we know exactly what we were doing? Debatable. Did we bring good vibes, encouragement, and excessive fist pumps? Absolutely.
In a bold (possibly chaotic) act of personal growth, I shared my story with everyone. Vulnerability: 100. Tears: 1.5. Regrets: 0. It was scary, but so powerful—and honestly, if 18-year-old me could’ve seen me up there, he’d have passed out, then slow-clapped.
Also… wore a fairy costume. In public. And face paint. And I didn’t feel weird. I was weird—and I loved it. Embracing the cringe is now officially my new superpower.
The dance sessions? Electric. The transformation in just two days? Mind-blowing. The pink team photo? Frame it. Hang it in a museum. Tattoo it on my soul.
To everyone who showed up, danced it out, got deep, laughed, cried, and screamed “PINK TEAM!” with absolutely zero chill—you made this weekend unforgettable.
I came to volunteer. I left inspired, exhausted, and incredibly full—in the best possible way.
