Lissa Rankin's 40th birthday party

Today is my birthday. I have lived 41 years. A year ago, I was celebrating my 40th with a slumber party of all my girlfriends, getting ready to launch Owning Pink on April 27, right after my birthday celebration ended. So it’s a special sort of birthday, being able to look back on what we’ve created together this year. It fills me with gratitude to see how much love, hope, faith, friendship, writing, connection, and transformation exists now that didn’t only one year ago.
