Mind blowing to see two hurricanes, #HurricaneJohn on the left (west coast of Mexico), and #HurricaneHelene (Big Bend region of Florida) on the right, both making landfall at nearly the same time. #Helene #John

Thrilled to be at Options XII right here in our hometown of Brisbane, Australia! Two years ago, Options XI meant a marathon 36-hour plane ride. Today, it was just a quick 15-minute bus ride. So happy to be part of the amazing event! #optionsxii
