A voice-note from Gen this time, sharing how a jam-packed holiday weekend turned into a surprise win: the baby bossed her stage fright, friends were reunited, and a community party became a milestone for family confidence. The high is real, the crash is real, and she is trying her absolute best to accept the necessary aftermath rest without shame.
