A gem, a light, and a selfless giving spirit. You believed in me from the day we met when you opened up your door to me after an email I sent you. I needed guidance and a safe space. Your heart was pure and you literally opened up so many opportunities for me to see my full potential and value when I didn’t see it myself. I’m forever grateful for your mentorship, your love, your friendship and encouragement. I’m truly heartbroken by your transitions but I’m grateful you are no longer suffering. You legacy will continue on as your circle will not allow it to fold. Rest easy, I hope to continue to make you proud as I was to be your mentee @michellematerre.
