I'm truly humbled to be named Woman of the Year at the 40th Annual Woman of the Year Celebration, held during the LA County commission on women’s 50th anniversary year. This moment highlights the power of perseverance and hope. The theme “Moving Forward Together” reminds us that our progress is built on the foundation laid by those who came before us and will pave the way for future generations. I'm grateful for this recognition of my work with Luna Peak Foundation, supporting cancer patients and creating resources for the community. Thank you to all who've supported this journey. 💜 #WomanOfTheYear #MovingForwardTogether #WomenWhoLead #IntersectionOfMemoryAndHope

Last sunset of February 🌅

Started the walk a little after 4pm…that golden light. By 5:50pm the sun was melting into the Pacific.

Watching the little sailboats head back into King Harbor brought back so many memories — my sister learned to sail here years ago. Different decade, same fundamentals, same tiny boats, same harbor.

Ended the day sitting on the rocks, listening to the waves hit the break wall and just… being still.

No speeding this up. Just 51 seconds of exactly how it felt.

BEA!!! You are a force to be reckoned with.

YOU ARE AN OLYMPIAN!!!! And YOU MADE IT THROUGH TO FINALS (Which we know even from finals, it can be anyone’s day to not land even anything it’s always a gamble). YOU LANDED YOUR FIRST OLYMPIC RUN!! Feb 11 2026 and it was like 3 years and I finally breathed deeply b/c I know how resilient you were again and again and again. It makes me smile that you unabashedly unapologetically lead with your style, and personality. It’s great! I acknowledge you for surrounding yourself with the best friends, teammates, mentors, family and coaches. You know when and how to take a stand and speak up, yet have your physical and mental and academic health all be non negotiable. But today - I saw a new insane level of FIERCE and CALM even in the face of so much adrenaline and pressure! Beyond compare super human level. I see you.

The unexpected surprise for me - is how inspired i got at what I see is possible between a daughter, brother, mom and a dad thanks to you and the fam. 🫶🏽 life goals.

Congrats Bea Kim!!!!! YOU DID IT!!!!! 🥹

Could not have asked for a more engaged and professional partnership and journey. Up to big things so this year was a lot! And you handled it ALL with energy and grace. 💐 (and nice surprise moment with @snoopdogg!!!!)

Thanks @catleonaitis, PR by @beachycrystal, @mstinadixon @christynicolay @anniefast @alyroe @therealswimsadie @missy_konig @mnbruton 🙏🏽🎉 appreciate you all for a two days of accomplishment and fulfillment of Olympic proportions (pun intended), Jedi mind tricks and miracles.
