I am absolutely thrilled to be part of this amazing event happening this weekend as we all come together to tune out noise and tune into our hearts. This event was created through amazing people connecting through The Foundlings, a non-profit organization that I am a part of as Sammy Taggett and I bring hope and inspiration back to the orphanage where we came from!
