🎥🎬 Lights, camera, and plenty of LAUGHS! 😜 In the latest episode of @theamericandreamtv, tears were shed (even our camera crew choked up!), but laughter wasn’t far behind. Laughter is the BEST medicine, they say. Chatting with former foster youth at @projectlemonadepdx, we found common ground in our shared experiences, from the paths that brought us to foster care to the moments we faced within it.

We all have a story and despite whatever cards we’ve been handed, I believe that we have a choice to write a new sentence, a new chapter in our lives. No one can take that from us…unless we let them. 🙏🏽

In the words of one of my favorite movers and shakers, Dr. Maya Angelou: “My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.”

Make it a great day to put a smile on someone’s face. 😊
