I joined Vibrant Life in 2023.
What do you love most about Vibrant Life?
I love the overall sense of community and belonging. We can authentically be ourselves and we can be vulnerable and open with one another without fear of judgment.
If you had some advice to give to someone who is curious about joining Vibrant Life, what would you tell them?
I would say “come as you are!” You don’t have to have all the answers or be “perfect.” We are all imperfect people who have different perspectives on many different topics. Just come with an open heart and a willingness to learn and grow.
