It was a mix of emotions when I heard my name being called for the Walk the Cooee Way award. At first I was confused as to why I was being called. When I was handed the appreciation certificate, I was greatly moved. As I read why Miss Meiko nominated me, I felt a huge sense of comfort. She told a story about how I was honest and vulnerable at a time where I needed help, and that I wasn't afraid to ask for it. It's nice to know that somebody appreciated that moment of openness. As I go through my Cooee journey, I'll still strive hard to embody empathy, authenticity, and continue to believe in the potential of others, and it's one great unexpected achievement for me.
Heartfelt message!
Amazing!
