The ocean teaches us that there’s room for everyone to shine. This Joy Rides Only event with Moore Aloha Charitable Foundation is about learning to cheer each other on, even when we’re chasing our own dreams. In competitive spaces, it can sometimes feel easier to compare than to connect but when we choose kindness and support, we rise even stronger together. Through engaging activities and heartfelt conversations, we will explore ways to build our self-worth, strengthen our sisterhood and learn how kindness and competition can flow together.
