27 years around the sun 💫

This year has been absolutely nothing like I have ever planned nor imagined beyond my wildest dreams!

I started and finished my nail technician course while having a high risk pregnancy, working full time, being a toddler mom & law enforcement wife

Finally conceived my sweet baby girl after trying for a year

Separated from my husband

Moved out of the home I thought I was going to raise my children in

Moved in w/ my mom after being out of the house for the last 8 years

Started therapy

Adapting to being a mom of 2

After everything that has transpired this year, I did not break. I can do hard things. I can rewrite my own story. The road doesn’t have to end here.

If your going through a tough season in life please have grace for yourself ❤️‍🩹

Your not damaged or broken

Your worthy of all the good and positive things this world has to offer

Your not a bad parent, friend or spouse

The road doesn’t have to end here.. keep going !

... Read moreThis year has been a whirlwind of change and growth. Navigating the challenges of a high-risk pregnancy while being a full-time working mom is no small feat. Many women find strength during pregnancy, even when life takes unexpected turns. I recently completed my nail technician course, showcasing the importance of pursuing goals despite heavy responsibilities like caring for a toddler and being a supportive partner to a law enforcement spouse. After trying for over a year, I welcomed my sweet baby girl, proving that patience and resilience pay off. However, my journey also faced heart-wrenching challenges like separation from my husband and moving away from the home I cherished. Relocating with my mother after years of independence taught me valuable lessons about family support during tough times. Counseling and therapy have provided me with tools to adapt to my new role as a mother of two, emphasizing the importance of mental health in our lives. It’s crucial to remind ourselves that during life's toughest seasons, we are not alone. Each experience, whether joyful or painful, helps us grow stronger and rewrite our stories. If you're experiencing challenges, be gentle with yourself. Remember, you're not damaged; you're worthy of all the good life has to offer. You deserve happiness as a parent, friend, or spouse. Life doesn’t end with hardships—keep moving forward and embrace each moment with grace.

I’m not sharing this to brag. I’m sharing it because I wish I knew what was possible when I first started nursing. At 27, I’ll make around $250,000 this year as a travel nurse. Five years ago, I was a staff nurse working nights, exhausted, and barely able to save. I used to sit in the break room
