Growth that begins in our roots
It’s been 4 months since we moved to Tucson, Arizona, and what a wild 4 months it has been. I knew it would be a big adjustment moving to the other side of the country from where we were born and raised, but it hasn’t just been an adjustment. It’s been a roller coaster,...
First and foremost: I completely understand that getting triggered, especially when it comes to trauma, can be painful, scary, uncomfortable, and debilitating. Everything I am about to say is to be worked into slowly and safely. Small steps and one trigger at a time. Now, before I go into how our triggers are our...
The time I spend alone has transformed into something I now cherish and even crave. It is a necessary part of my self-care and contributes deeply to my self-love and the relationship I have built, and continue building, with myself. This wasn’t always the reality though.

I found myself sluggishly dragging my unwilling self over to the kitchen table five days a week, where I had setup my remote work station for my job, still wearing what I had slept in + my red robe. This happened more days than it didn’t because I wasn’t leaving the apartment, so what...

It is not always easy to stay on “the path,” but detours are the nature of the game. It is very easy, however, to get caught up in all the good stuff. Especially in the beginning of our journeys, & especially if we’re coming out of a particularly dark place. There are soo many...
