Saw Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour in Toronto with two of my kids, including my daughter! 🎶 Her song “The Man” always hits home – a powerful reminder of the work ahead for women in leadership. Taylor’s journey shows how resilience and authenticity can inspire change. 💪 #WomenInLeadership #ErasTour

Today, on #WorldPrematurityDay, I’m reflecting on our journey with our late preterm twins. While their NICU stay was only a few weeks, we met families facing much longer paths. Premature birth impacts millions. To all the families and NICU teams—thank you. 💜
