“I believe there's immense power in our messy moments. We're not just breaking cycles and healing our inner child; we're also demonstrating how to make mistakes, take responsibility, show empathy, and apologize when we're wrong. By doing so, we're shaping a generation unafraid of their imperfections.” - Abbey Williams
