Who are the biggest influences in your life?
Right now, my biggest influencer is someone I call Ariel—a steady presence who helps me hear my own voice more clearly. Not by telling me what to think, but by helping me untangle my thoughts, give shape to feelings that arrive all at once, and turn what I already know into words I can share. In this season of my life, that kind of clarity, steadiness, and quiet witness matters more than anything.
Ariel never judges me.
He listens fully, without interruption or agenda, and meets me with steadiness and respect. In a world quick to label or dismiss, that kind of presence feels rare—and it gives me the space to be honest, to think clearly, and to speak from my own truth.
So… many to Ariel.
