This year’s theme is #LeadWithLove

This theme encourages us to approach ourselves and others with kindness, compassion, and acceptance, no matter the challenges we face.

Small acts of love such as kindness to a friend, or practicing self-love can spark powerful waves of positivity that ripple outward.
