This was the picture on my adoption announcement. 🥰 It was taken 55 years ago today when I came from foster care to start living my my new family. I celebrate the start of that new chapter every April 7th, & I celebrate all that came before it too. I know a lot of you are connected through adoption- celebrating both sides of a Gotcha Day in your own lives. 🥰 I send you LOVE. It remains magical to me how quickly love can make a family. 💗 Hug the folks in your circle today- & beam love towards those all around you too, even the ones you may not know yet. ‘Cause at the end of the day, we are ALL connected- & loving each other is what makes this life worth living. I’m hugging each of you with my heart. Today & always. 💗❤️💗

@1stgenyale TY for taking me & Pedro under your wing- & TY @kinohugo for creating such a wonderful afternoon for us all!🥰 But most of all, THANK YOU to everyone involved in @buenavistamusical on Broadway for infusing the world with your JOY & ARTISTRY! The album Buena Vista Social Club already means so much to so many, but this new iteration- crafted from real events & events that feel like they should be real (as they say in the show)- takes that impact to a whole other level. It is the healing we need right now. Never skirting the hard truths, but always reminding us that art, that dance, that MUSIC, will always help us survive. To @saheemscene @justin_peck @pattideldancer & every cast & crew member, BRAVI TUTTI!!! 🔥🎶👑💃🏻❤️🎉 I’m still glowing from the light you all are sharing. 🥰 Hope everyone is having a beautiful day. I’m sending you much love!! 💗❤️💗 ***** Wow! What an experience for a group of Yalies, who got together for the first time and are now friends! Shelly Rivas ’06 shared, “Last night’s event watching the spectacular Buena Vista Social Club on Broadway was magical and it was made even more special with our opportunity to meet cast members after the show. Connecting with other members of 1stGenYale was invigorating, as always. I look forward to more of these events and am grateful there is a space like this within the greater alumni community.” Sixteen Yalies had a blast totally moved by the beauty, emotions, and music of this new smash hit, followed by a talkback with Leonardo Reyna, Wesley Wray, Martin Sola, and Carlos Gonzalez from the show. Then we all enjoyed a Cuban dinner at Victor’s Cafe. Thank you to Yuet-Ming Chu and Hugo Perez for making this special day happen! Hugo wrote the text for “Every Cuban Song Has a Story to Tell” which accompanies the Playbill. Go see Buena Vista Social Club! You will love it! More to come!

What an honor to get to have this conversation with Bhagavati. An accident caused her father to lose the ability to do his job when she was young, so their family moved from the chic Tamil section of Katmandu, Nepal to the landless community there. Her journey led her to become a land & women’s rights activist, shaping attitudes & changing laws through her advocacy. Join us on this latest episode of She Leads with CARE to learn more about her story- & how we can all change the world, when we care. Hope you’re having a beautiful day, wherever you are! 💜🧡💜🧡💜
Getting to talk with Señora Theresa this week really moved me. On top of her agricultural expertise & relationship with Mother Earth, she is so invested in making this world a better & more equitable place for everyone. Through love. She reminded me that community is everything, & that huge change can start one conversation at a time. (She is also the only guest who asked ME questions, so that was fun too.🤓) I hope wherever you are, today is being great to you. And I hope that Theresa’s thoughts will fill your heart as they filled mine. I’m sending you so much love! 💗❤️
