one million congrats and thank you so much to this team! Perhaps you included them in earlier newsletters and I didn't notice, but this time I so appreciate getting to see and learn about the women and the work behind the scenes of this!

Congratulations, heading over to sign up right now, AND I will miss the intimacy of Essaying AND I'm so glad you will be out there in front of the rest of the world, creating more of your biggest fans! (AND you following me on Instagram made my 20 year old say I was "the coolest momma," so as far as I'm concerned, your work on my behalf is done.)
