I think I rushed the documenting part of healing.

Writing again has been one of the best things I’ve done for myself. It has helped me see patterns. It has made me more honest with myself. It has helped me slow down enough to actually look at what I’m feeling instead of just reacting to it. And sharing some of that has been really mean

MONDAY CHECK-IN ☕🌿

Well… Here we fucking go again. 😂 New Monday. New week. Same slightly chaotic human trying to figure her shit out one day at a time. And this morning, I don’t want to start with everything I need to accomplish. I don’t want to make a giant list of everything I need to fix. I do

🌿BECOMING HER — DAY 95

Sunday, August 23, 2026 Today started like absolute fucking shit. Literally. Somehow one of the cats got locked in the office overnight, and I woke up to piss, shit, and a smell so goddamn awful that I immediately wanted to cancel the entire day. I was pissed. I was irritated. I w

I haven’t disappeared. I’ve just been living

The last couple of days have actually been really good. Not perfect. Not quiet in my head. Not magically healed. Just… good. I’ve had some healing moments. Some realizations. Some uncomfortable self-awareness. Some moments where I’ve had to stop and look at myself differentl

FRIDAY CHECK-IN 🌿🤎

Okay… Monday we checked in before the week got loud. Well. The week got fucking loud. 😂 So before we rush into the weekend, let’s check back in. Not: Did I get everything done? Not: Was I productive enough? Not even: Did I handle everything the “right” way? Just… Ho

🌿BECOMING HER — DAY 92

Thursday, August 20, 2026 Today was one of those days where my brain had about 47 fucking tabs open, but somehow… it was still a really good day. I was awake off and on starting around 5 this morning, but actually got my ass out of bed around 7. The kiddo was already awake, so we got movin

Okay, enough about me. 😂🤎

I actually want to know: How the hell are YOU? Not the automatic “I’m good.” Like… really. How’s life? What’s been taking up space in your head lately? 🌿 Tell me something good. 🤎 Tell me something hard. ✨ Tell me something you’re proud of — especially if it seems tiny to ev

🌿DAY 91 — NOTE TO SELF: I’M SO MUCH HAPPIER ALONE.

Motherfucking goddamn it. I think I might actually be happier alone. There. I said it. Today started stupid fucking early. I had to be up, functioning, and out the door before 7 AM for my psychiatrist appointment. And after the kind of day I had yesterday—which I’m not ready to talk

🌿 THINGS HEALING HAS TAUGHT ME — #1

A Journey Back to Me My nervous system is not the enemy. This one has been a mindfuck to learn. Because for a long time, I thought some of my reactions were just… me. Why can I go from okay to completely overwhelmed? Why do I overthink everything? Why do I sometimes shut down when

🌿 DAY 89 — MAYBE THIS IS WHAT LEARNING TO LIVE LOOKS LIKE

This morning, I did my Monday Check-In. ☕ My energy: hopeful 🧠 My brain: ready for Monday 🤎 Emotionally, I was carrying: a lost, hurt, broken inner child 🌿 Something I needed this week: patience with myself 🗑️ Something I wasn’t carrying into this week: the guilt I built last week ✨ And one

MONDAY CHECK-IN ☕🌿

Okay… before the week gets loud. Before the appointments, responsibilities, other people’s feelings, shit that needs to get done, and whatever unexpected chaos inevitably shows up… How are you actually walking into this week? Because I’m realizing I don’t need to start Monday with a perfec

DAY 88 — I FINALLY LISTENED.

Today was messy. And happy. And uncomfortable. And ordinary. Basically, it was real fucking life. I slept in. I sang. I cleaned. I went shopping and bought myself some things because I’m finally learning that enjoying something for myself doesn’t require guilt or permission. Th

DAY 87 — FUCK THE WORLD, WE’RE MAKING MEMORIES 🌊🎮❤️

Today I did something that sounds ridiculously simple: I put my phone on Do Not Disturb. And I fucking meant it. Not because I was angry. Not because I was avoiding anyone. Not because something was wrong. Because nobody was getting my energy today. Today it belonged to me. It bel

I Think I’m Finally Understanding Why I Became Her.

I’ve been learning that healing isn’t always about becoming someone new. Sometimes it’s about finally understanding why you became who you had to become. 🤎 Why you shut down. Why you overthink. Why you apologize when you did nothing wrong. Why you people-please. Why chaos can feel more fa

DAY 86 — Today Was Just… Good. 🤎

After everything yesterday took out of me, apparently my body decided we were sleeping in today. And honestly? I let it. I got up, had breakfast with the kiddo, got dressed and actually felt kinda cute today. 💁‍♀️ Then her dad showed up to get her on the motorcycle. And listen. Th

Friday Check-In 🖤

Well… this week certainly had some fucking AUDACITY. 😂 Started therapy. ✔️ Cried approximately 9,472 tears. ✔️ Unlocked childhood shit I would’ve preferred remain password protected. ✔️ Connected some very uncomfortable dots. ✔️ Recognized cycles. ✔️ Chased chickens. ✔️ Mowed the lawn. ✔️

DAY 84 — FUCK THIS FUCKING DAY.

Today was therapy. And I knew it was going to be hard. I just didn’t realize how fucking hard. I cried on the drive there. I cried through an hour and a half of therapy. I cried on the drive home. And then I cried some more. Apparently today my body finally decided: We’re done pol

🌿 DAY 82 — I Think I Need to Write Tonight

Day 82. I don’t really know how I feel today. Which, ironically, might be the most honest way I could start this. The day itself was pretty normal. Coffee, obviously. ☕ Some cleaning. Chased escaped chickens because apparently my healing journey now includes livestock management. 😂🐔

🌿 DAY 81 — Apparently Healing Includes Chinese Food

Day 81. No major revelations today. No dramatic breakthrough. No crying on the floor. No life-changing speech. Just a Sunday. And you know what? I think I’m starting to realize that maybe that’s part of healing too. I got up and had my coffee because obviously ☕😂 Got the
