Another amazing IRL meetup - this time teaming up with Elevate MN to wrap presents, share laughs, and sprinkle a little extra joy into the season. ✨ There’s just something special about showing up together! Huge thanks to everyone who joined - especially @Lex Garza who invited us! Your energy, kindness, and heart make this community shine brighter than the Christmas lights. 🌟 Can’t wait for the next one! 🙌

Four of us gathered today to help sort toys for families in need and honestly, I was actually fun. Laughter, teamwork, and holiday cheer in full swing! Minnesota hearts really do shine bright this time of year. 💛 Thank you to everyone who showed up (and to those cheering us on from afar). This community keeps proving that connection isn’t just about showing up online. It’s about showing up in person. Let’s keep this energy rolling into the new year. Who’s in for our next IRL adventure? 🙌

I am still smiling after such a great night!!!! Thanks to @Jason Fish @Lex Garza @Sharon Prahl and @Julie L! I know more about paintball, cross-country bike trip, skating boarding, and the beauty of new friends! My heart is full - and I cannot wait for what comes next. This is just the beginning and I am glad to be along for the ride!!!!!

Happy Friday, Minnesota crew! ❄️ Today’s all about connection - showing up, giving back, and spreading joy together. 🙌 We still have a few spots open to help wrap presents and make the season brighter: 🎁 Cottage Grove – 1:00pm 🎁 Minneapolis – 6:00pm Check the calendar for details and come join us! Because the real magic of this season isn’t in the paper and bows. It is in the people beside us. 💫
