This week Amber is on the mic reflecting on another revolution around the sun. Turning 29 often feels like an in-between space. You don’t really feel like you’re in your 20s anymore but you’re not quite yet 30. Obvious milestones elicit reflections, but what about those in-between years? What do we learn, value, and embrace while we are on the way?
Amber talks through many of the topics that were top of mind for you all and reflects on what 29 means for her. She’s digging into her career, the milestones reached and the milestones missed and how building a vision has helped her realize that life is always better when lived in community.

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
