48. Not the age I dreamed about as a little girl... but honestly? She's kind of a vibe. She's calm. She's confident. She drinks her coffee like it's a personality trait and no longer shrinks herself to make others comfortable (even if she's a solid 6'2" while doing it). If you're somewhere in this beautiful, chaotic chapter too — welcome. We're wiser, louder in our boundaries, and finally secure enough to take up every inch of the space we were given. Getting older isn't scary. Shrinking for other people is. + Here's to growing, loving, and hyping each other all the way through it.
