• Vulnerability and Healing

  

  Lately I have been stuck in a rut. Filled with anxiety. Heartbroken. Recovering. Healing. And for reasons I can’t quite describe. But I’ll try. Several months ago, my mother needed help. She had a neighbor causing her mental and emotional distress, so I wanted to help her. I wanted to give her a safe place […]

• We need to be the change in this world

  

  I have been subjected to harassment, bullying, rape, negativity, harmful behaviors and accusations since a very young age. And I wish I could say that now-as an adult- that it has stopped… But it hasn’t. But this isn’t a “pity me” story because I KNOW I’M NOT THE ONLY ONE, and how sad is that!? […]

• The journey to find myself

  

  The woman I am today, is a complete 360° from the woman I used to be. The girl I used to be. Who I am today was not an easy journey to get to. As a child you don’t know who you are.. you have ideas of who you are and what person you want […]

• Hello 2020

  

  Oh my gosh, where did 2019 go!? I swear it was just 2019 yesterday.. *WINK* 2019 was good to my family. Sure, we had our struggles, but none of that mattered. None of that even made an imprint because the blessing outweighed the issues. In 2019, I GRADUATED Penn Foster High School one year early-with […]

• Letting go of fear and loving myself completely

  

  I’m shy. I’m introverted. I’m socially awkward. I’m damaged 10x over. People mistake me for being a snob because I just sit there and don’t approach them. But what they don’t understand is that makes them the snob. Judging me instead of trying to understand or acknowledge who I truly am. I’ve struggled with this […]
