Dedication

First, I want to take a few lines of this book to express gratitude. To Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior who knew me before I was thought of and whose love sustains me in my most challenging moments, I am thankful for the opportunity to live the life You have blessed me to live. My prayer is that my life brings You honor.

To my husband, my love, my best friend, and the one who makes my heart flutter: I’m so unconditionally thankful to share this life on earth with you. Thank you for your support, encouragement, and for your love.

To my momma and papa whose shoulders I stand on: I can never thank you enough or repay you for all you’ve done for me. All I want to do is make you proud.

To all my girlfriends, my village: Thanks for celebrating the triumphs with me and encouraging me through the challenges. You bring me so much joy. I love you and thank you for your support.

To my coaches, Dr. Drai and Dr. Toni Haley, thank you for pushing me beyond my limits. Thank you for dreaming big for me when I could not dream big for myself. Thank you to my mentor, Dr. Bonnie Simpson Mason, for living your life in a way that pushes me to be better for all of those around me. Thank you for holding my hand and for being, hands down, the best hype woman ever. I love you all.
