💜 FOUNDING MEMBER ANNOUNCEMENT 💜

Today we are proud to recognize one of our amazing Founding Members, Lesa Davidson — better known to many as Mema Lesa!

Lesa is a truly remarkable woman. If being the most incredible mom and grandma were an Olympic sport, she’d be standing on the podium with a gold medal around her neck. Her love, support, kindness, and dedication to her family are unmatched.

Thank you, Lesa, for believing in this dream and supporting Second Wind Academy from the very beginning. Your contribution has helped tremendously as we work to build something special for our community.

On a personal note, I (Zech) am incredibly blessed to have you in my life. Your encouragement, wisdom, and unwavering support mean more than words can express.

We are honored to have you as part of the Second Wind Academy family and grateful to have you alongside us on this journey.

Welcome, Founding Member Lesa K Davidson — our one and only Mema Lesa! 💜🦋

🌿 FOUNDING MEMBER ANNOUNCEMENT 🌿

Amber’s Place
Amber Groesbeck

It may not come as a surprise that Amber is one of the strongest supporters of someone else’s dream.

Her kind heart, generous spirit, and unwavering encouragement have been a light during some of the most difficult moments of this journey. She is the kind of person who doesn’t just offer support—she becomes the foundation that helps others believe again.

Amber takes simple ideas and helps turn them into something meaningful, real, and successful. That kind of energy is rare, and it deserves to be recognized.

Thank you, Amber’s Place, and thank you, Amber, for everything you do—not just for me, but for everyone lucky enough to know you and be supported by you.

You are deeply appreciated.

Welcome as a Founding Member of Second Wind Academy.

You will see her on the mats , I promise you that!
