🌈 Community Practice Spotlight: We All Get to Show Up as We Are 🌈
You are enough — just as you are. In this InterPlay principle, we celebrate our whole selves: our gifts, our edges, our imperfections. There is room for all of you here.

✨ How often do you feel like you can truly show up without needing to perform or explain?

💬 Reflection prompt:
What does it mean to you to be able to show up fully? What helps you feel safe doing so?

👇 Let’s build a thread of encouragement and honesty — share in the comments.
