October 23 was an extraordinary and truly remarkable day for me. After leading the Nia White Belt trainings for 28 years, last Thursday marked the very final day of the last Nia White Belt training session I will ever lead. My journey over these past three decades has been an incredible ride, filled with continuous growth and countless unforgettable moments, as well as setbacks and disappointments, ecstatic highs, and profound depths of despair.
I am deeply filled with gratitude for the wonderful people I have had the privilege to meet along the way.
The important lessons I have learned through both success and challenge
The numerous opportunities I have been fortunate enough to experience, the diverse countries I have traveled to and explored.
And the many meaningful lifelong friendships that have been nurtured and fostered throughout this truly remarkable chapter of my life.
