Embrace Vulnerability
I feel like the idea of being vulnerable can be scary. Putting yourself out there, showing up as you are, and all for what? It may sometimes feel as if showing up authentically and speaking your truth puts you under scrutiny, thus leading you to feel judged, unaccepted, unworthy, secluded – whatever it may be.…

Consistency Baby
Throughout previous posts I’ve talked about how crucial showing up for yourself is and how the journey is all about consistency. I feel like “showing up for yourself” is more or less a blanket statement – up for interpretation based on your own situation and circumstances. I want to dive into the things that I’ve…

I think that the expectations we are held to – societally speaking, is…

Clean Your Room
If I could give one piece of advice to someone that struggles with anxiety/depression, I think it would be to make your home/room/living space your safe haven. I know that it might sound simplistic and not really like “advice” …. But in struggling with depression and anxiety, my room became a reflection of my brain:…

The Truth About Healing
“Heal your shit so you can hear what is being said without the filter of your childhood wounds” – @RyanRoseevans “The wound is not my fault. But the healing is my responsibility” – Marianne Williamson I stumbled across these quotes, and they really resonated with me. I’ve been in a weird place recently where I…

Wipe Your Slate Clean
When you give yourself the space to start over – you begin to realize that you are not a puzzle, but simply a blank canvas waiting for the stroke of a brush. Starting over does not mean failure nor does it mean being set back. You are not broken pieces that need to be put…
