Monique Helstrom
“Life is a potluck. And what each person brings to the table is what makes the feast. No one dish is better than another, and no one person’s contributions are more important than the other. Our strengths make us unique. Our differences make all the difference. It’s the power of our individuality that powers our partnerships with others.”
