@SoulfullyAButterfly, here is mine

Terra first started this journey when she was going through some major hardships back in 2022. She stumbled upon this site, and ever since she has been through a glistening stages of development just like a butterfly. She has been a listener for quite some time now, and from being a Listener, she has evolved into a Moderator. Terra is not only a dedicated peer to this community, but also a loving mother, supportive wife, and a full-time worker at a work-from-home job. Terra has handily driven each person she has met here with her resilience, empathy, and wise words. You will always discover Terra trying new things whether it is learning a new skill or finding new ways to help others'. Terra has often been the center of peer appreciation or has others coming to her telling her how insightful she is, and how incredibly strong she is for a person her age. 

Expertise: I involved when I first started and how easily hooked I was to being here from that moment forward and the progression stages.

Authoritative: I mentioned that I do many things from being a mom, and a wife to working from home and still being here each day as a dedicated member of this community.

Trust: I created the trust by placing the fact that I have had many peer appreciations made for me and some of the members have come to me to tell me the positive things they think/ have thought of me.

Bunny has always had a deep passion for helping others. On his 15th birthday he created his listening account, and soon was a moderator, and a familiar face on the teen side of 7cups. He has faced many hardships in his life, everything from abuse to being trans to anxiety, and he uses this to empathize with others. While he has recently stepped down from most responsibilities on 7cups, to take care of some chronic heath issues, he still enjoys helping. When he isn't on cups he enjoys reading, and playing music. One day he wishes to be a trauma surgeon, along with writing film scores in his free time.
