In an unpredictable world, personal safety is a priority we cannot afford to ignore. The Second Amendment of the United States Constitution grants citizens the right to protect themselves and their loved ones—a right that feels more critical than ever in light of recent events. My husband has stressed the importance of concealed carry as a daily practice to ensure the safety of our family, including our children. For instance, a self-defense shooting in Brickell, reported by NBC Miami in early 2025, underscores how quickly danger can emerge.

In addition to firearms, learning martial arts for hand-to-hand combat provides another essential layer of self-defense. It equips individuals with the skills and confidence to handle close-quarters threats effectively. Criminals with malicious intent often strike without warning, and being prepared—whether through responsible concealed carry or physical training—can be the difference between safety and tragedy.
Empowering ourselves with the tools and knowledge to protect our families is not just a right; it’s a responsibility.
