“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.” –Oscar Wilde

What a radiant, shining soul! From the first day I met Emily, I knew I had stumbled upon a treasure. I so admire how she engages life to the fullest.

Emily lives authentically, honestly and whole-heartedly. When faced with life’s ebbs and flows – and especially when she’s up against tumultuous times – Emily grows and presses through to find value and meaning in all things. When everything else is shifting and stripped away, she not only has the grace to discover and embrace her true self, but also the strength of heart to extend love, acceptance and empathy to others.

Like most creatives, Emily pursues existence profoundly with an incredible depth of soul and poignant insight, lightened by her spunky flair and lively sense of humor. What a delightful breath of fresh air it is to be in her presence.

Reflecting on her path towards self-acceptance, Emily recently wrote: “How grateful I am to have to have found out that who I am is wonderful.” Wonderful she is indeed! As a friend, I’ve witnessed Emily’s continual growth in confidence, self-respect, bravery and beauty. She is a timeless jewel with a genuine spirit. I’m so honored to journey this life with her!

I hope these portraits provide a glimpse into the incredible, luminous effervescence that is Emily Knobbe.
