Building a Community of Kindness and Support
This blog is a deeply personal reflection on how living with heart disease transformed my life—not just physically but emotionally and spiritually. It explores how I found clarity, redefined success, embraced vulnerability, and discovered lasting meaning and purpose through pain and uncertainty.
Between January and April 2025, the Heart of a Giant Foundation (HGF) conducted over two dozen community-based blood pressure screening and health education events across 7 Greater Boston-area neighborhoods and online: Mattapan, Dorchester, Roxbury, Jamaica Plain, East Boston, Brockton, and Bridgewater.
Wellness isn’t loud. It rarely arrives with fanfare or finishes with fireworks. More often than not, it’s a quiet decision you make in the middle of a stressful Tuesday or a rainy Saturday morning—when you’d rather collapse than commit. Sticking to self-care goals is less about sudden overhauls and more about the rhythm of small, daily loyalty to yourself.
