A very special moment — my mother meeting Michael Saylor.

Two people from completely different worlds, but both representing qualities that shaped the way I think, work, and aspire to lead.

My mother has always been the foundation of my mindset — the person who taught me discipline, emotional intelligence, clarity under pressure, and the courage to build a life with purpose.

Everything I do today, especially in a fast-paced and high-conviction domain like digital assets, is rooted in the values she gave me.

Watching her meet Michael Saylor — someone whose first-principles thinking, long-term vision, and intellectual courage have redefined how institutions understand Bitcoin — felt symbolic in a way I can’t fully put into words.

Saylor represents a mindset the world rarely sees:

• thinking in decades, not cycles
• conviction built on deep research
• leadership anchored in clarity, not noise
• the ability to challenge existing financial frameworks with grace and logic

My mother represents something equally powerful:

• strength that isn’t loud
• wisdom that isn’t forced
• resilience that is lived, not spoken
• values that stay constant even when the world moves fast

Bringing these two worlds into one frame reminded me of something important:

Greatness has two origins — the values that raise you and the ideas that push you forward.

One gives you roots.

The other gives you direction.

For me, this moment is more than a photograph.
It’s a reminder that:

• conviction is built at home
• purpose is strengthened by mentors
• and vision grows when you place yourself between those who inspire you in different ways

Grateful for my mother — my first teacher.

Grateful for minds like Michael Saylor — who redefine what is possible.
And grateful for the journey ahead, shaped by both strength and perspective.
