Together we created Breathing in Unity Yoga, a space where our neighbors could slow down, breathe, and be in community. She has seen what I do when no one is watching: showing up, listening, and doing the work. Thank you, Emelia, for your friendship and for sharing your voice. This is what District 5 is about.
