Special thank you to the @WhitehallNews teachers who organized the 1st Annual WES Wellness Day! Students spent time painting inspirational rocks, planting flowers, doing yoga with @openuppgh, and reading with therapy dogs. It was truly a special day! – at Whitehall, PA

“February is coming to a close and remember it’s not about having a special someone to celebrate love, it’s about understanding how we express love to ourselves.” @openuppgh I could sit in this stillness all day. ✨ #mindfulness #stillness #love #lululemonambassador

I am once again warning you all that I am this close 🤏🏼 to opening a gym that centers disabled and trans people’s needs with wheelchair-friendly machines, no loud music, soft overhead lights, individual shower rooms, fat-positive trainers, and classes led by drag queens.
