The space of possibility is in the light.  The possibility to thrive after loss and to recover after setbacks no matter how debilitating. Petagay believes in the strength of vulnerability, the human capacity for growth, and the power of dreams. She hopes that 7 Ways will support people in allowing light inside themselves so they too can shine and live in the light.
