Before Hallie, I thought strength looked loud.

I thought it meant never crying, always having the answers and somehow holding everything together.

Then she came along and taught me that real strength looks very different.

Hallie has taught me…

❤️ That bravery isn’t the absence of fear — it’s doing the scary thing anyway.

❤️ To celebrate the little wins, because sometimes they’re actually the biggest ones.

❤️ That joy can exist alongside worry.

❤️ That resilience can come wrapped up in tiny hands and big belly laughs.

❤️ To slow down and appreciate the ordinary moments we once took for granted.

❤️ That even on the hardest days, there is still so much to be grateful for.

Being Hallie’s mum isn’t the journey I expected, but it has shaped me into someone stronger, softer and more compassionate than I ever thought possible.

What has your child taught you? I’d love to hear. 🫶❤️

“She looks healthy.”

A sentence so many heart families hear all the time.

And while we’re grateful for the good days, there’s also so much people don’t see behind the scenes.

They don’t see:
• the lifelong monitoring
• the specialist appointments
• the anxiety before scans
• the surgery scars
• the medications
• the growth concerns
• the constant “what ifs”

Congenital heart disease doesn’t always look dramatic from the outside.

Sometimes it looks like a little girl laughing, playing, going to school and living her best life — while carrying a journey most people could never imagine.

And honestly? That’s exactly what we fight for. ❤️

Winter hits different when your child has a heart condition.

Every cough feels louder.
Every fever feels scarier.
And even after surgery… the worry never fully leaves.

People often think congenital heart disease ends once the operation is over — but for many heart families, winter can still feel incredibly vulnerable.

The balancing act between protecting your child and letting them enjoy a normal childhood is something only heart parents truly understand.

So here’s your reminder this winter:
You are not overreacting.
You are not “too anxious”.
You are carrying experiences most people will never fully see.

To all the heart families navigating cold & flu season right now — we see you. ❤️

A cardiology appointment is only a few hours long…

But the emotions can last for days.

The overthinking beforehand.
The anxiety during the scans.
Waiting for the cardiologist to walk back into the room.
Trying to stay calm while listening to words you never thought you’d have to learn.

And then afterwards?
Relief.
Exhaustion.
Gratitude.
Sometimes heartbreak.

This is just a little glimpse into what appointment days can feel like for heart families 💕

Some heart conditions are invisible.

You don’t always see the appointments, the medications, the anxiety, the monitoring, the exhaustion, or the fear parents carry quietly every day.

Some children look “perfectly healthy” while fighting battles most people never notice.

Awareness matters because invisible doesn’t mean easy.

To every heart warrior family navigating this journey quietly — we see you 💕

Some heart conditions come with visible scars.

Some don’t.

But every heart warrior deserves understanding, awareness and support 🤍

CHD affects 1 in 100 babies — and many families carry battles most people never see.

This page will always be about advocacy, community and reminding heart families they are never alone.

Built Brave isn’t just a slogan.

It’s every appointment.
Every scar.
Every anxious night.
Every brave little heart.

For the heart warriors 🤍

I've been a little quiet lately...
Life got busy, I married the love of my life and then we deserved the most fantastic honeymoon after the year we have had. It was hectic - but this mission still means everything to me 💙❤

Hallie is still our little heart warrior.
And we're excited to slowly start showing up again.

Who's still here? 🫶

Lest we forget ❤️

Today we pause, reflect, and remember the brave men and women who served and sacrificed for our future.

Through little eyes, we teach the next generation the meaning of courage, sacrifice, and remembrance 🌺

We will remember them. Today and always.
