Some seasons don’t ask for permission…they bloom anyway.🌸
Yesterday was peak bloom in Washington, DC — a reminder that becoming doesn’t happen all at once. It happens quietly. Patiently. Beneath the surface. Until one day… everything opens.
2026 is my year of BECOMING.
In Chinese astrology, the Fire Horse year symbolizes courage, movement, destiny unfolding at full speed. And somehow, destiny has placed me here — in the nation’s capital — with an organization committed to becoming the gold standard of women’s professional soccer.
It isn’t about rushing greatness. We’re resourcing it. Investing in it. Building it deliberately. Because excellence isn’t an accident — it’s a decision made over and over again.
Sport has always been one of my greatest teachers. It humbles you, rebuilds you, demands your growth… and sometimes, if you’re lucky, it lets you be reborn.
Standing under these blossoms, I’m reminded:
We don’t control timing.
But we do choose who we become when the moment arrives.
Here’s to renewal.
Here’s to courage.
Here’s to blooming exactly where destiny plants you.
What is your word for 2026? 🌸
