Today I take some time to reflect on a series of events that was filled with so much joy, love and community. With a focus on the words spoken. Where our dynamic was never just about two adults.

Traditional to Millennial
In my 36 years of life, I have worked for trade, knowledge and of course dinero for 28 of those years.
