THE SPRAWLING NEW Porsche River Oaks dealership was the scene for the Ladies of Victory's holiday soiree.

Houston Grazing Tables set up a beautiful charcuterie board to complement apps courtesy of Masraff's, while oenophiles sipped selections from Wine by Haus of Cellars and 12 Fires Wine. Dessert bites were provided by Alice Blue.

In its 35 years, Victory has raised more than $60 million for cancer research, and it was recently announced that all proceeds from fundraising will be used exclusively for local initiatives. In the spring, the organization will host the first-ever Rally Ball with a theme of "Blazing for a Cure" at 713 Music Hall.

Saba Syed, Founder of Oasis Moroccan Bath

How did you get to where you are today? My journey began with a need to be financially independent and an even a deeper drive to create a lasting legacy. The centuries-old Hammam tradition has always fascinated me—not just for its relaxation benefits, but for its holistic approach to cleansing the body, mind, and soul. So, combining my passion with a vision to bring an authentic yet luxurious Hammam spa experience to Houston, I took the leap less than two years ago to open my own spa.

With New Concept Album, Jacob Hilton Processes Mental-Health Struggles

Dakota Garrett

Jacob Hilton, a.k.a. Travid Halton, at home in his kitchen, where he enjoys cooking as a form of therapy.
