A letter for me
Dear Me, You’re tired. So, so tired. And that’s okay.You’ve been strong for a long time — maybe longer than anyone realizes. You’ve worked, held the family together, taken care of those who needed you, and put yourself last more times than you can count. That doesn’t make you weak — it makes you human. … Continue reading A letter for me
Morning
Have you practiced self-care this week? Lately, I’ve been leaning into movement—working out to stay grounded and writing to untangle my thoughts. Mornings have become my sanctuary. I light the day with intention, hoping—quietly, deeply—that today will be the one. The one where things click into place, where I can finally exhale the breath I’ve … Continue reading Morning

But no, Fate (and my husband) had other plans. Today, we had to attend a visit—capital V, because this … Continue reading Family
Rewrite
For most of my life, I carried a story about myself that wasn't kind. I was the "spoiled girl," the one who had it easier than others, the one who didn't quite measure up to the struggles that defined those around me. It wasn’t a name I gave myself—it was handed to me, woven into … Continue reading Rewrite
Reunion.2
Walking into that reunion, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Twenty-five years had passed since I last sat in that classroom, surrounded by friends who spoke a language I barely understood yet welcomed me anyway. Would they remember me? Had I left a mark? Why had I come at all? And yet, the moment I … Continue reading Reunion.2
