"I'm so grateful. I think one of the most beautiful things to witness about my parents' relationship still is just their love and support of each other. It means so much to me, the way that my mom, and I think to all of my sisters and I, the way that my mom shows up for all of us as we are working with it, as she is working with it, even how she is with my other little sisters."
