Keeping my promise to 22 year old me

When my driver’s licence was suspended after my narcolepsy diagnosis, I was devastated.

But instead of spiraling, I made a commitment to myself.

If I ever earned my licence back, I would only drive cars worth celebrating.

They wouldn’t be just transportation. But rather a symbol that harder and resilience aways pay off.

Well, I did earn my license back.

And today, we brought home a beautiful 2025 Mercedes SUV.

Promise kept!

And yes… it fits a Great Dane (or two!)

2/24 Edited to

Losing my driver's license was one of the most challenging moments in my life, especially after being diagnosed with narcolepsy. It wasn’t just about not being able to drive—it felt like losing a part of my independence and freedom. But instead of letting this setback define me, I decided to turn it into a source of motivation. I made a heartfelt promise to myself that if I ever earned my license back, it would be with something special, something that symbolized my resilience. Navigating the process of regaining my license wasn’t easy. It involved medical evaluations, staying vigilant about my health, and proving to myself and others that I could be responsible on the road despite my condition. During this time, I focused on creating a positive mindset and setting goals that kept me moving forward. Finally, when the day came and I was allowed to drive again, I knew this was a milestone worth celebrating. Selecting a vehicle felt more meaningful than ever. We opted for a 2025 Mercedes SUV—from Star Motors of Ottawa—because it represents quality, style, safety, and the luxury of comfort. Plus, it perfectly fits my Great Danes, making every drive enjoyable for my whole family. This new car isn’t just transportation; it’s a symbol of overcoming difficulties, staying determined, and rewarding oneself after hard work. For anyone facing medical or personal setbacks, my journey is a reminder that resilience leads to new beginnings. Celebrate your victories, big or small, because they reflect your strength and commitment. If you are dealing with similar challenges, consider setting meaningful goals that inspire you rather than discourage you. Believe in your comeback and let your story highlight the power of perseverance and hope.

A close-up of two hands, one with a small sun tattoo, clasped together on a bed with blankets. Overlay text asks, "DO YOU HAVE A RELATIONSHIP VAULT? KEEP THINGS PRIVATE, DON'T OVERSHARE," introducing the concept of privacy in relationships.

A couple lies in bed, each holding a wrapped burger, with overlay text defining "THE VAULT" as a mental space for private information that stays within the relationship, such as embarrassing stories or personal insecurities.

A vase of pink and white roses, a chocolate cake with raspberries, and a candle are shown. Overlay text explains "WHY IT'S IMPORTANT" to have a relationship vault for setting boundaries and preventing hurt feelings by keeping certain information private.

keeping things private in a relationship 🤫💕

My boyfriend and I have something called our VAULT. It’s not an actual physical vault, but a mental vault! Basically, when we tell each other something is “vaulted” or “goes in the vault,” that means that it does NOT leave the relationship. For example, I have a LOT of vaulted embarrassing stories.
