As I sit down to write this, I can't help but feel a whirlwind of emotions. Launching "Gather, Give, GLOW" is a dream that's finally come to fruition, a dream that's deeply personal and reflective of who I am at my core. This event isn't just an initiative by GLOW; it's a reflection of my essence, my beliefs, and my journey in the world of wellness and entrepreneurship.
Collaboration at the Heart
From the early days of moving from Chicago to LA, chasing my dreams of dance and later stepping into the fitness industry, the path has been nothing short of exhilarating. Yet, it's been a journey often walked alone. Transitioning into entrepreneurship with GLOW was a leap of faith—a solo venture into creating something that could embody my philosophy on wellness, community, and support. But in my heart, I've always been a collaborator.
The opportunity to highlight and work alongside other leaders in the fitness and wellness space is something I've long envisioned. There's a certain magic that happens when like-minded individuals come together, each bringing their unique energy, knowledge, and passion to the table. "Gather, Give, GLOW" is the embodiment of this belief—the culmination of years of dreaming, planning, and hard work. It represents a pivot from walking the path alone to marching forward with a community of incredible individuals.
Making an Impact
Beyond the joy of collaboration, this event holds a deeper significance for me. It's an avenue to make a tangible impact on the world, to drive donations, and to support those in dire need. The decision to donate all proceeds to the Children's Heart Foundation is a testament to GLOW's commitment to not just talk the talk but walk the walk when it comes to making a difference.
Philanthropy has always been close to my heart. The ability to leverage the platform I've built with GLOW to support meaningful causes is something I don't take lightly. There's an overwhelming sense of gratitude that comes with being in a position to give back, to lift others up, and to contribute to a world striving for more light and kindness.
Gratitude for the Journey
Reflecting on this moment, I'm filled with gratitude. Gratitude for the community that's embraced GLOW and supported our mission, gratitude for the hard work and dedication that's brought us to this point, and gratitude for the opportunity to celebrate the essence of who I am through "Gather, Give, GLOW."
This event, at its core, is about connection—connecting with oneself, connecting with others, and connecting with an impact beyond what any single individual can create. It's a reflection of GLOW's WHY and my personal WHY. It's about showing up for ourselves, for each other, and for the world.
Thank you for joining me on this journey. Your support, whether through participation, donation, or simply spreading the word, means the world to me and to those we aim to help. Together, let's make "Gather, Give, GLOW" a beacon of hope, wellness, and generosity.
Sign up for classes here. The event starts February 11th-February 14th.
With light & gratitude,Gabby Sansosti
