I have been living the true definition of push through and somedays Faith has me in a chokehold right now. Living with Stage 4 bilateral upper and lower extremity lipo-lymphedema has challenged me in ways I wasn’t prepared for, physically, mentally, and emotionally and if I’m being real… it’s one of my biggest insecurities.

I used to rip and run. Go. Move. Show up for everybody, most times without even thinking about myself.

But this time… God sat me down for real. So much has happened in my life in just a short amount of time and when you’re forced to slow down, you don’t just feel it in your body, you feel it in your spirit. You start facing parts of yourself you could avoid when you were always on the move.

This is uncomfortable. This is humbling. This is hard.

But I made a promise to myself… I’m going to faith my way through it anyway.

Not because it feels good.
Not because I’ve figured it all out.
But because I refuse to let this be the thing that defines me.

So if you see me moving different, slower, quieter… just know I’m still here.

Still choosing faith.
Still choosing to show up.
Still choosing not to quit on myself, even on the days it would be easier to.

This season didn’t stop me… it sat me down long enough to understand myself differently.

And I’m walking through it…however that looks on purpose.

The peace I have right now… whew.

I ain’t never felt like this before.

I can’t really explain it. I just know something in me has gotten quiet. I’m not trying to figure out every next move. I’m not fighting what God is doing. I’m not asking for everything to make sense anymore.

I know God got me.

and for the first time in a long time, I feel… settled.

God sends reminders through people, moments, and things we almost scroll past.

Be careful what you call a setback. You may be standing in the middle of an answer you don’t recognize yet.

Keep going. Stay the course.

If this finds you at the right time… you probably know why. 🤍

Predatory Energy is real…

It’s in businesses, organizations, mentors, collaborators, and even “community.” and that’s where it gets interesting…

Because sometimes people become so accustomed to someone’s kindness, loyalty, support, and willingness to pour into what they’re building that they start to believe they’re entitled to it.

Oh but wait until that person thinks differently.
Sets a boundary.
Asks a question.
Or simply decides, “This no longer serves me.”

Suddenly the narrative changes. 👀

The support wasn’t genuine.
The person was the problem.
They “weren’t really supportive.”

How bout No…just maybe… they simply stopped allowing themselves to be consumed.

That part is worth thinking about.

Not everyone who walks away is against you. Sometimes they finally see you clearly. 👀

What happens inside an organization when humanity gets separated from the mission?

That question has been sitting with me for a while. I find myself returning to a truth that is difficult to sit with: Sometimes the greatest threats to a mission do not come from outside the organization. Sometimes they come from what happens inside it.

I’ve been journaling about experiences that challenged me in ways I never expected. Not because I didn’t understand that hard things exist, but because there is a different kind of pain when you pour your heart into a mission, believe deeply in the work, and then witness what happens when the humanity behind that mission begins to disappear.

Workplace trauma is real and the impact reaches far beyond the walls of an organization. When leadership loses compassion, accountability, and the ability to truly see people, the damage does not stop with employees. It touches the communities being served, the people who continue showing up with genuine hearts for the work, and the very mission everyone claims to protect.

Because how do we heal communities that are hurting while creating spaces where the people doing the healing are being harmed?

Nearly 22 years in and it has taught me about leadership, courage, accountability, and the responsibility we have to protect the heart behind the mission. Some stories are painful to revisit. But some stories are written because they need to be heard.

One of the greatest misconceptions about individuals with intellectual and developmental differences is that they are limited by their diagnosis.

What I have learned is that many are not lacking ability, they are lacking opportunity.

As I watch my students move closer to graduation, I am reminded that growth looks different for everyone, but progress is progress. Their journey has required determination, patience, resilience, and the courage to keep showing up even when things are difficult.

We spend a lot of time focusing on transferable skills, communication, confidence, problem-solving, professionalism, and self-advocacy because success is about more than earning a credential. It’s about believing you belong in the room and having the tools to navigate it.

Some days are challenging. Some days require extra patience. Some days they absolutely wear me out. 😊 But every breakthrough, every accomplishment, every moment they begin to see their own potential makes it worth it.

One of the quickest ways to learn where you stand with people is to pay attention to what happens after a private conversation.

If someone is comfortable sharing with you what was never theirs to tell, chances are they're just as comfortable sharing your business with someone else.

Loyalty isn't proven by what people say to your face. It's revealed by how they handle information, relationships, and trust when you're not in the room.

The tricky part is that disloyalty rarely introduces itself as disloyalty. It often arrives wrapped in concern, friendship, advice, or "I'm only telling you because..."

Pay attention.

Character has a way of revealing itself without ever making an announcement.

And if someone is willing to betray another person's confidence for your benefit, don't mistake that for loyalty. One day, you may find yourself on the other end of that same conversation.

Trust wisely. Protect your peace and value the people who know how to hold space without spilling it. ❤️

It’s something sacred about being able to lock in creatively and therapeutically. Based on our own lived experiences as a motherless daughter, we’ve been holding stories that were never meant to stay buried, because grief doesn’t only come from death.

Grief can look like a mother who was deported.
Grief can look like a mother who is incarcerated.
Grief can look like addiction that took someone while they were still alive. Grief can look like abandonment. Grief can look like a mother sitting right in front of you who never learned how to love beyond her own wounds and grief can look like losing the mother who loved you with everything she had, but still won’t be there for the milestones, the phone calls, or the moments you rehearse in your head just to feel close to her again.

The truth is, daughters don’t just lose people.
They carry what those losses do to them.

For months, I’ve been sitting with women and helping them speak the unspeakable, not stories about mothers, but stories from daughters.

Daughters carrying grief.
Daughters carrying trauma.
Daughters carrying unanswered questions.
Daughters carrying love that has nowhere to go.

Because mental health isn’t only about what happened to us. Sometimes it’s about what was never said. What was never explained. Who was never healed and who we had to become anyway.

Sometimes the saddest family wounds are the ones nobody talks about out loud.

Generational hurt is real.
People inherit silence.
They inherit grudges.
They inherit stories told from one side.
They inherit pain they never personally experienced… and somehow end up carrying it like it belongs to them.

And the truth is, a lot of cousins, siblings, aunts, uncles, and entire bloodlines end up disconnected over battles they never started.

Children grow into adults already divided.
Not because they truly know each other… but because they were taught distance before they ever had the chance to build connection.

That’s the painful part.

Because sometimes you look at people who share your blood and realize the separation was never even about you.

It was inherited.

And if we’re being honest, a lot of families are silently grieving relationships that never even had a fair chance to exist.

Healing in families starts when someone decides to stop carrying borrowed hatred.
When someone becomes mature enough to say, “What happened before me does not have to become who I am.”

Not every relationship can be repaired.
Not every wound will suddenly close.

But cycles can end.

And maybe that’s where healing begins.

Don’t give up in the middle of your becoming.

That’s usually where depression gets loud, trauma feels heavy, and surviving another day starts feeling exhausting.

But being broken and becoming can exist in the same season.
