You are one of my closest friends & have been my right hand, helping to bring @honest and @honest_beauty into where it is today 💗.”

“You saw the potential in me before I did and I saw the same in you. It makes me cry to think about the tremendous ups, down, twists and turns we’ve been through in what feels like a blink of an eye. You are firm and honest with your guidance but always hold space for a tender moment. Getting to grow with you has been one of the things in life I treasure most 🙏🏽. Thank you for pushing us forward every single day. As a friend, leader, mama, magic maker, go-getter, all the things - you wear all the hats and do the most -in the most low key, elegant way✨💫,” she continued.
