In celebration of Women’s History Month, we gathered at Goodwin House Alexandria for an afternoon honoring the women shaping the world of wine 🍷
Thank you to Lisa Katic of @winegallery108 for leading such an engaging tasting. From the stories behind each bottle to the carefully curated selections, it was a wonderful way to recognize women winemakers and the impact they continue to have.
And of course, sharing it together made it even better! 💚

Celebrating ONE YEAR of Thrive 💚🎉
What a joy it was to gather with participants, families and friends to mark this milestone together.
There were treats, games, special moments and even collaborative quilt crafting. Each square represents the connections that make Thrive so special.
Over the past year, Thrive has become a place where individuals living with early stage dementia can stay active, engaged and connected. It is also a place where caregivers can find trusted support and a moment to recharge.
Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey. We are just getting started 💚
