Real talk on love, life, career, wellness & becoming who you're meant to be
There is a moment in every health journey where the body stops whispering and starts screaming. For me, that moment came in January 2014. I had been living with chronic physical symptoms for years (arthritis, debilitating gut issues, hormonal imbalances, relentless nausea) and I had normalized every single one of them. Pain was just part […]
Do you remember what it feels like to sit in a room full of people who love you and still feel completely, utterly alone? I do. I remember it so vividly it still makes my chest tight. January 2014, I was curled up on my couch, surrounded by everything a person could need (a warm […]
“Shout out to my ex, you’re really quite the man. You made my heart break and that made me who I am.” I know, I know, I already used that Little Mix quote in another article, but honestly? It hits different every single time. Because here’s the thing: my biggest heartbreak didn’t just make me […]
There was a version of me that couldn’t be touched without flinching. Not because I didn’t want intimacy, but because my body had been storing years of unprocessed pain, and every tender moment felt like an intrusion rather than an invitation. January 2014 was the month I finally admitted it: my intimate life was completely […]
Let’s be honest: your inner critic has opinions about your business decisions She’s loud after a failed product launch. She’s relentless when a client ghosts you. And she is absolutely unbearable when you check your bank account after a quarter that didn’t go as planned. Here’s the thing, though. That inner critic? She’s not your […]
That voice in your head telling you that you could have done better? It might be onto something. If you have ever walked out of a meeting, finished a project, or wrapped up a presentation and immediately started picking apart everything you did wrong, you are not alone. We all carry an inner critic, and […]
I Learned to Criticize Myself Long Before I Knew What Self-Criticism Was Do you remember the first time someone you loved pointed out something you did wrong? I do. I was about seven years old, sitting at the kitchen table, proudly showing my mother a drawing I had made at school. She glanced at it, […]
That Voice in Your Head Is Louder Than You Think Hey friend! So the other night I was lying in bed next to my partner, completely spiraling. He had made this offhand comment earlier about how I “always forget” to lock the back door, and instead of hearing it for what it was (a mildly […]
That voice in your head? It followed you into the bedroom. You know the one. The voice that whispers you’re not sexy enough, not experienced enough, not doing it right. The one that makes you hold back when your body wants to let go. The one that turns a moment of connection into a performance […]
Dear Financial Fear, We Need to Talk Dearest Financial Fear, I wanted to send you some gratitude (yep, gratitude) for so boldly reminding me that you cannot be ignored. You are one persistent pest that may not always be visible on my balance sheet, but I can always feel you lingering in the background of […]
Dear Fear, Thank You for Showing Me What Matters I used to think that fear was the opposite of ambition. That if I were truly passionate about something, truly called to it, I would charge forward without hesitation. That real purpose would feel like certainty, like a clear runway with no turbulence. I was so […]
The Moment I Realized Fear Was Sitting at My Family Table Do you remember the first time you felt afraid to speak up at a family dinner? I do. I was sitting across from my mother, words piling up behind my teeth like cars in a traffic jam, and I could feel that familiar tightness […]
