This past week with Warrior Rising left me deeply moved. From dinner tables to the gala stage, one thing stood out above all: their unwavering commitment to bringing people with them as they rise.
Success wasn’t celebrated as an individual achievement. It was about community, legacy, and loyalty. Every detail reflected years of relationships, mentorship, and shared purpose. They don’t just invest in veteran entrepreneurs; they walk alongside them, shoulder to shoulder, as they build something extraordinary.
Serving this country comes at a cost. And yet, vet entrepreneurs take that sacrifice and turn it into innovation, leadership, and resilience. Warrior Rising is proof that when you invest in veterans, you’re investing in people who know how to persevere, adapt, and lead with heart.
To the donors, partners, and supporters: your impact doesn’t just fund businesses. You are fueling hope, dignity, and opportunity for veterans who’ve already given so much. That ripple effect is immeasurable.
I am grateful to have witnessed it firsthand and honored to stand behind an organization that lifts as it rises.The best memories are made in The Guest Lab, but this week reminded me that the best legacies are built when we rise together. Thank you and every person who stands with you all for this dream of an opportunity.
These ladies im standing with on this stage are phenomenal, powerhouse women! Im HONORED to have met and shared the stage with you all. I can’t believe it!!! .0
