I have been greatly influenced by the work of holocaust survivor, Victor Frankl, who showed that we may reach our full potential not only despite suffering and trauma, but because of it. I truly believe that we are incredible people, on incredible journeys and that our journey always has the most unimaginable potential for beauty.
