WHAT ARE CONNECT CORDS?
The Bright Lights Pre-Launch Connect Cords collection represent and connect us to the best parts of us, the best parts in each other & investing in the best for the world.
For every Cord bought, we’ll donate 10% of the profits to (bracelet dependent) organizations advancing human rights—right now via women in elected office, voter protection, racial justice, access to mental health support for girls of color, protection against employment discrimination, empathy training in schools, bipartisan initiatives to serve the voter, pro bono counseling for the Covid frontline, feeding families impacted by Covid, investigating forced hysterectomies of women in deterntion centers, support for small children facing immigration hearings alone, and bridge building between Jewish and Arab children in Israel.

Doing what we can with what we have where we are is powerful.

What People Are Saying: We Shine Brightest Together
Meet The FOUNDER
Hi, I’m Sara👋🏽 I'm so happy you're here! I‘m honored to be the founder and member of such a special community. In fact, if I wasn’t the founder, I’d still 1000% want to be in this community because of what it stands for and the exceptional people who are apart.
My belief in the importance of knowing our worth, being fought for and the way our identity can shape how we treat others was formed early. When I was born doctors said it was highly unlikely I’d ever be able to walk, talk, see, analyze or socialize. My mom refused the prognosis. I cheered, am now an attorney & my distance vision is crap but I get to don cute glasses so not mad at it.😉 As a proudly Black, Italian, French, Portuguese, Chinese & Native American woman, growing up—I was painfully deemed too black” for white kids, “too white” for black kids.
As a woman who has now experienced much more severe forms of prejudice, who grew up feeling alienated at times & who is adamantly convicted we’re beautifully connected and STRONGER TOGETHER— I'm a believer in creating spaces that HONOR what MAKES US UNIQUE, what UNITES us and the power in both. I'm confident that together we can deconstruct systemically prejudicial systems and that part of that process simply begins with us seeing we aren’t alone and doing whatever we can with what we have where we are. And without Jesus, I wouldn’t be here. Foundational to my passion to love each person, to celebrate the pricelessness of every life and for justice is my belief that it’s He values most—we are what He values most.
When I'm not dreaming of ways to remind people of their worth, champion the underserved or imagining how companies can serve more people most effectively, you’ll find me where there is an ocean, opportunity for authentic connection or pizza.
Looking forward to all ahead for us--the ways we will get to support each other, remind one another of the treasure resident within and be apart of releasing streams of justice!
