How I shifted from Managing a Schedule to Managing my Energy
The longer I worked... the more I achieved... the closer I thought I was to fulfillment. I chased productivity like it owed me something. I booked every available hour with back-to-back commitments... squeezed in “fun” networking events as if that would keep me sharp... and prided myself on never stopping.
How Motherhood Changed Me. A Journey of Awakening I Never Saw Coming..
I wasn't aware of the fundamental reality shifts I would experience coming into motherhood. When I was featured for my story in Wellbeing Magazine, it was a moment for me to really reflect on the old version of me, and embrace the new.
The Emotional Cost of Growth & What Internal Conflict Really Feels Like
When we feel these alarming symptoms of depression, dread, and procrastination…it’s a sign that we’re moving in a way that’s not completely aligned. It’s not a sign of being broken.
It’s a sign that you’re walking through thick mud - energetically…instead of a nicely paved sidewalk.
It’s meant to feel deeply uncomfortable, so that the friction causes you to go in another direction.

Self-Care, How I Learned to Honor Slow Days
Somewhere between work deadlines, motherhood, personal development books, and constantly trying to “get it right,” I lost the part of me that knew how to be still.

Learning to Sit in the Gray, Why Growth Isn’t Always Clear or Comfortable
For me, the hardest part of growth wasn’t deciding who I wanted to be.
It was choosing to let go of the version of myself I had spent years perfecting.
The version that overworked to prove she was capable.
The version that said yes when she wanted to say no.
The version that didn’t rock the boat…even when the boat was sinking.
Transitions & Why We Feel Lost Before We Discover Ourselves
Life has a way of nudging us into change…sometimes gently, other times like a full-blown storm.
Whether it's a career pivot, a shift in identity, a relationship ending, or stepping into motherhood, these moments of transition can feel disorienting. Not quite the old version of ourselves anymore, but not yet someone new, we float in the in-between.
If you’ve ever felt like you're unraveling or questioning everything during a big life shift, you're not broken. You’re just becoming. I know, it’s cliche but we have to share it because it’s an integral part of the human journey.
