That’s a wrap! We had an incredible day with members of the Miller-Dwan Foundation Board of Directors, along with our favorite facilitator, Gary Hubbell, who is hiding in the back. We are so grateful for the dedication, time, feedback and vulnerability of our board as we navigate our path forward. Looking forward to 2025!

It’s okay to pause and check in with yourself. How are you really feeling? What do you need to recharge, heal, and grow? By taking care of your mental and emotional well-being, you’re showing up for yourself—and putting yourself in a better place to continue supporting those you love. #MentalWellness #RechargeAndGrow #HopeX #MillerDwanFoundation
