Your experiences, your love, your strength — all of it matters. Even in hardship, there is light.
Today I celebrate 37 years of survival… and my health is the best it has EVER been.
I regret some decisions and some situations I found myself in, not because I was "bad," but because I was naive, vulnerable, and lacking affection.
For as long as I can remember, I thought survival and worth were the same damn thing. If I was needed, I mattered. If I was wanted, I was safe.
The voice that whispers you should accept less, stay small or be grateful just to be tolerated. That voice is not truth.
I don't want to hold back my joy. I've been through such dark moments in my life that I refuse to deprive myself of this small light.
Going into a new year, I don't want us chasing "inspirational." I want us choosing real. Messy. Honest. Boundaries over burnout. Silence when needed.
Whatever the individual reasons, many people's mental health suffers during the holidays. We offer this collection of resources as a holiday gift to our beloved community.
Have you ever felt like screaming and it's like nobody would hear you if you did?
