I'm here to help light up the darkness, inspire, and help other mums feel seen and less alone through my musings on life, motherhood, and mental health, intertwined with my faith and grief. This is a space for REAL motherhood - the good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly. Here, I promise to be open, vulnerable, and honest.
Here, you are seen, and you are heard.

We often grow up believing that family is important. Family is supposed to be our safe place; the people who have your back, who will protect you, understand you, and love you unconditionally. So, what happens when family hurts you?
Something I’ve noticed every year about this busy season is that I have to really fight to maintain some sort of regular self-care. But I make it a priority because I know that historically, when I let go of my self-care, things usually don’t end well for me. But how do you do self-care when you’re in a busy season? And how do you make sure you do the right type of self-care that will actually fill the right cups?
When you keep pushing yourself and running on high stress/fight mode for too long, you’re going to break. So, what’s the solution? Rest? Sounds simple, doesn’t it? Well, the truth is, there’s so much more to resting than the word alone implies. And let’s face it, for a lot of us (mums especially), rest usually seems ineffective or impossible.
