The mother wound is simultaneously the most common thing I see in my work and the least commonly talked about. Because how do you grieve someone who is still alive? How do you name a pain that doesn’t always have an obvious story attached to it? How do you explain that your mom “wasn’t that bad

Joint pain isn’t just something to live with—it’s often a signal from the body asking for support. When inflammation, circulation, and nutrient levels are out of balance, the joints can begin to feel stiff, achy, or restricted. Instead of forcing quick fixes, gentle support through teas like tur

something about life lately has me reflecting on everything. I’m currently in a place where I’m so lost but at the same time, more stable than I’ve ever been. I just don’t get why I don’t feel accomplished. And not in the sense of “I’m where I want to be and everything is perfect” but in a way of “

✨ Okay… why did no one tell us from the jump that period pain could hit our butts too?! 😭 I remember the first time it happened, I was curled up thinking, “This cannot be normal”. It literally felt like someone was pulling a string from my lower back down through my body. I genuinely thought someth

Not all pain is a sign that something is wrong. Sometimes it’s a sign that something no longer fits. And your system… your body, your mind, your patterns— are trying to reorganize around a new version of you. But expansion doesn’t always feel like freedom. It can feel like pressure.

For so long, I thought my body was something I needed to fix. I believed that if I could just get rid of the breakouts, the bloating, the fatigue, the mood swings then I’d finally feel good in my skin. But the truth is, my body was never broken. It was always communicating with me. I just wasn’t li

The hardest part isn’t knowing what to write… it’s letting yourself go there. Most people stop right before it gets real. They skim the surface, intellectualize it, or turn it into something neat and explainable. If you want this to actually help, stay a little longer than feels comfortable.

I’m absolutely obsessed with all my tattoos so far, and they all have such special meaning to me!! If i had the money or they weren’t so expensive, i’d be covered in tattoos by now😭 1. 1/10: this was my first tattoo, and i had NO idea what to expect. i have a pretty high pain tolerance and hones

First off pregnancy is beautiful and if you choose that journey or you’re lucky enough to have a good support system along your experience you’ll think so too!

it started at the worst time possible...I started experiencing joint pain around my knees at the very beginning of my half marathon training program. I JUST signed up to participate in a half marathon race and it was extremely frustrating and worrisome that I wouldn’t be able to participate in my r

That’s not something to be ashamed of. It’s something we should talk about. Let's be real, most girls have experienced: 🍑it’s not passionate, it’s painful. 🍑we’re not “into it,” but pretend we are. 🍑dryness makes every move feel like sandpaper. 🍑our mind just isn’t there, even if our bod

This book. This book. This book demands better attention, now! Sometimes and just want to shouted out so loud as this book def need more attention! It’s a “novel in verse” that I thought might feel too literary or abstract. Nope. It’s somehow both wildly poetic and painfully relatable. The s

I used to get headaches, cramps, and nausea on my period, the typical symptoms you commonly hear from girls. Then I started to learn that maybe there was a connection between these symptoms, and estrogen dominance in the body. I went on a journey to detox estrogen, and after a few months of ter
