Late night mind dump 🌸🫶✨

This isn’t just a poem—it’s a release.

“The Exit Wound” is for every woman who mistook survival for love.

Who thought healing him would save her.

Who finally chose herself.

💔 A preview from my upcoming poetry book:

Letters from a Healing Heart

If this hit home…

Save it. Share it. Speak it.

Because the wound might still ache,

but sis—you made it out.

... Read moreThe poem 'The Exit Wound' serves as a poignant reflection on the complexities of love and healing, particularly for women who have endured emotional struggles within relationships. It highlights the journey of discovering self-worth and reclaiming one's identity after confronting toxic dynamics. Many women often confuse survival with love, mistakenly believing that by healing their partner, they can find their own salvation. However, the narrative unfolds to reveal that true healing starts from within. The poem acts as a reminder that self-love and prioritizing personal well-being is essential in the journey of recovery. The excerpt illustrates the painful realization that a partner's neediness can sometimes resemble intimacy, but it often results in emotional entrapment rather than genuine connection. Acknowledging this is part of the healing process—understanding that love should not come at the cost of one's own identity and peace. With hashtags like #HealingPoetry and #TraumaRecovery, this piece connects a community of women who are finding strength in vulnerability and authenticity. The upcoming book, 'Letters from a Healing Heart,' promises to delve into these themes further, offering solace and support to those navigating their paths to healing. Remember, acknowledging your wounds is the first step toward healing; you have already made it out stronger than before. Celebrate your journey and the courage it took to prioritize your self-love.

Do a Financial Brain Dump (feat. My May Budget)
Our financial wellness is undoubtedly tied to our mental wellness. Jotting everything down leads to a clearer state of mind. Plus personally, I’m also not always anxious about money when I know where I stand with my expenses. So I brain dump all my fixed bills at the start of the month.

I have barely been posting my pump pictures as of late, as I’m feeling almost stuck right now it feels as though I’m not growing or getting any bigger and I just have been feeling defeated a bit honestly. I know though that even if I’m not actively seeing growing I need to push through this rut.
