"I am a believer in the transformative power of love, kindness, and self-belief. Through my journey of overcoming personal medical challenges, including chronic illness and battling mental health issues, I have garnered enlightening perspectives and a reservoir of wisdom. My vision is a world where every individual, especially children, can grow with a strong sense of self-worth and bravery, nurtured with love and intention.” - Lauren Bowen

At just 22 years old, I am embarking on a journey to channel my experiences into a mission of empowering others to foster a loving awareness within themselves, encouraging them to not just be themselves but to consciously create themselves every day with love and kindness. I am passionate about being a beacon of love in the world, promoting a culture of giving, and nurturing an environment where everyone can feel fulfilled, loved, and joyous.

I knew Sulley would be the perfect vessel to spread this love I have for humanity. He has been by my side through some of my worst moments in life, and I can confidently say that life is better with a Sulley, especially at the lowest lows.

As an author and artist, I understood that my work had to portray the greatness of this dream I had for a brighter future for our world. It took countless hours in the pursuit of knowledge and practice to cultivate and grow my skills. And so, with many revisions and renditions passed, I am so excited to share with everyone my dreams and what I have created around it. I am thrilled to serve my community, a community I hold so dear in my heart. I am committed to being a force of positive change, encouraging others to 'Be the Love you want to see in the World,' a mantra that I live by, and which forms the cornerstone of my movement to bring about a world resonating with warmth, kindness, and unwavering self-belief.

Sullivan (Sulley)

Be kind to yourself. Be kind to others. Know that you are loved... and Dont forget, I'll love you forever and ever " - Sulley the Service Dog

Sulley was born May 26, 2020. Sulley in real life would classify as an emotional support animal/ service dog in training. Although there is no real certification for service animals, it is absolutely crucial and required that a service animal is respectful and well-trained for public access. This requires copious amounts of training. Sulley has always been naturally inclined to help his mom through her challenges, and works to learn the requirements of being a working animal. Disclaimer, Service Dogs in training are only protected in certain states and countries. Please check your local laws, and always be safe and respectful for your service team and others.

Sulley had his own challenges to overcome too, as he was the smallest boy of the litter and often times, weighed less than his sisters. He too had to learn that he could be and do anything he wanted through expanding his loving awareness. Although he was the smallest, Sulley grew very big and strong from all the love he was learning to give to himself and all the love he was receiving from everyone he met,

Sulley is the true embodiment of being the love you want to see in the world. Sulley is kind and loving to everyone he meets, especially children. He does not judge. He embraces everyone with turbo-charged tail wag, and kind kisses. Sulley loves giving love, hope and smiles. Nothing makes him happier than seeing all of his friends grow and thrive... except maybe some peanut butter too!
