Hard to find the words to describe how I feel about this article. Yes, I can write for hours and hours about the fun fashion trends or new beauty products, but at the end of the day, this piece of work will always be what I’m most proud of. I got to put my mama in a national magazine!! Her story is beyond inspirational — from her diagnosis at just age 42 to starting her own non profit to raising over $100,000 for research and awareness to creating her own local support group to help others, she truly is a force to be reckoned with. So grateful I got to write and share her story in a publication that has a print readership of nearly 4 million!!! If my mom can touch just one person with her story, it’s all worth it to me. Thank you so much to my kind-hearted friend and colleague @maggie_dillard for pitching it and helping me in the writing process, and to my editors and @lizvaccariello for giving me the opportunity to do this. On newsstands now, go pick up your copy of Woman’s World magazine💙💙💙💙

there are not many times my mom is left completely speechless. but today, when I surprised her with how much you all raised for her, she instantly started bawling and couldn’t even speak because she was so shocked. last year when I did this, we raised about $130, which already exceeded my expectations. this year, we raised $670!!! (now up to $790!) I still can’t even believe it and neither can my mom, but she wants everyone to know that words can’t express how thankful she is and grateful. I will be sending all proceeds to my mom’s Shakin’ not Stirred team account, which is a nonprofit organization she started for PD awareness and fundraisers. From there, the proceeds will go to various Parkinson’s organizations for research (Michael J. Fox Foundation, National Parkinson’s Foundation, etc.), as well as the Shakin’ not Stirred organization to continue putting on fundraisers. thank you x1000000
