Hey Girl Hey!
As we turn the final page of 2025, I invite you to pause and breathe. Not the shallow breath of survival, but the deep, sacred breath of reflection. This year may have tired you. It may have stretched your heart in ways you didn’t see coming. It may have required you to say goodbye to parts of yourself, to people you loved, and to plans that no longer fit who you're becoming. And yet… you’re still here.
This issue our final love letter to womanhood for the year is dedicated to every woman who kept showing up even when the weight felt unbearable. To every woman who found herself weary, but kept whispering prayers through her tears. To every woman who grieved silently, hoped loudly, and decided, “I will not be broken.”
This month, we are honored to shine our spotlight on Elder Teresa Pearsall, lovingly known as The Pearl Queen™. Her story is a living example of what it means to emerge from life’s pressure with poise and purpose. Through her ministry, mentorship, and grace-filled leadership, she reminds us that pearls are only formed through friction but once formed, they carry a beauty that can never be dulled.
December is not just a time of endings it’s a sacred bridge between what was and what could be. As you read the pages of this issue, may you remember that the pain did not define you. The process refined you. You have not just survived this year you have grown, glowed, and graced it with your resilience.
So, to the woman reading this… You’re still standing. Still shining. Still rising.
And that makes you unstoppable.
Here’s to the women who made it.
Here’s to you.
