Unstoppable
There's a moment in every woman's life when she realizes she's done shrinking. Done apologizing. Done carrying the weight of expectations that were never hers to begin with. That moment.... that spark... is where transformation begins. It's where the world's attempts to drown her only teach her how to breathe deeper. It's where every push against her becomes the force that launches her higher.

It was pouring with rain, and we had to quickly fish out our ponchos. We thought, this couldn’t be it, could it?
