• I Was Treated Like the Villain—But I Was the Victim
    To every woman living in addiction, abuse and judgement When my son died, I expected grief.I expected pain.What I didn’t expect was to be turned into the villain of my own tragedy. In 2010, I was a young mother trapped in violence, trapped in addiction, and trapped in a system that saw my struggles as proof that I didn’t deserve compassion. I was on felony probation.

  • Some days I feel like I’m shedding an entire identity.
    Not in a dramatic way — just quietly realizing I’m outgrowing things I used to tolerate.
    People, habits, expectations, even old versions of myself.
    Growth is weird. It’s not always inspirational… sometimes it’s just lonely and necessary.

  • I don’t know who needs to hear this, but being the “strong one” all the time is overrated.
    It’s okay to be tired.
    It’s okay to want softness, safety, or someone to lean on.

  • When life feels heavy, I’ve learned to stop asking, “What’s wrong with me?”
    Instead I ask, “What do I need?”
    Rest? Support? Silence? A reset?
    It’s wild how different those two questions feel. One shames you. The other saves you.
