Meet Keeley, the beautiful warrior of the HerBear collective. She never wore a uniform, yet carried the weight of deployments, reintegration, and the quiet in-between. Her burnt-edge heart stitched with gold thread honors perseverance; a dusty-rose hoodie and worn elbows represent time-tested loyalty; an anchor on the sleeve symbolizes holding others steady, even when her own emotions drifted.
What Keeley stands for
•The unsung heroism of military spouses
