Have you ever fallen in love with a VISION? A vision in which you knew you were DESTINED to become.

Wow! I was blown away when I walked into this young lady's room. What I found was beyond just a girls room. She had quotes all over her walls. "You are IMPORTANT", "You are LOVED", "You are KIND", "You are SMART."

Addison's mom shared with me, that since she was very young, she would have Addison sit in front of the mirror and speak positive affirmations while looking at herself. She expressed the power of loving and believing in yourself. To me this was incredible!

This image is a "behind the scenes" glimpse into the internal work she has done to be where she is today. I wanted to help Addison tell the story of her journey on how she came to this powerful mission.

At the young age of 13, Addison has BIG BIG BIG dreams! She is on a mission to replace fear with love, replace doubt with knowledge and replace segregation with inclusion. People are not their disabilities, they are people first.

CONGRATULATIONS Addison Bortnick on becoming your peer elected Vice President of Cathy Middle School of McAllen, Texas.
