Through nine months of cancer treatment, including chemotherapy and losing all her hair, Cindy did her nails, wore lipstick, and put on a pink ski hat to every session. She didn't have the language for it, but she was already practicing intentional dressing — using clothes and color to feel bold even on the hardest days.
Team member Cindy, a breast cancer survivor, wore lipstick, did her nails, and donned a pink hat to every chemotherapy appointment as an act of intentional self-expression.
We think our sandbox is our whole world — the comfortable zone of tools and friends and habits we know. But look up and you'll see the sandbox is on a beach. We make our own boxes of what's possible without realizing everything else that exists beyond the edge.
Cindy realized she had been saving her pearl necklace (a 60th birthday gift from her children) exclusively for evenings, and decided to start wearing it during the day as an act of self-worth.
