I have never been more anxious to turn the page on a year that was filled with struggle and confusion, although an honest look back at the photos reminds me of so much beauty and joy in the simple act of being present. Today I feel sadness and gratitude at once, knowing my ability to feel and release and heal is my greatest strength.
So from this very hard-won resilience is my word for 2026: harmony. How can I try to show up as the best version of myself for everyone, even when I’m not feeling like it? How can I work best in cooperation and collaboration with others? How can I hold precious this gift (learned only through experience) that surrender yields the greatest reward of peace for myself and others? I want to do better, and I hope you’ll join me. 💚

A lot of pain and suffering has taught me that abundance and thankfulness are a matter of perspective. That’s not to say my emotional landscape is less significant than my material surroundings, rather when I turn my attention to my blessings and God’s healing power, I find peace and restoration. A lifetime dance with the infinite that shall never be complete! ✨

Depression doesn’t always show up like you’d expect. Sometimes it looks like avoidance or melancholy, other times like hypervigilance with material overindulgence and addiction. Sometimes I know why, the worst is when I’m completely forlorn, spinning in hopelessness. The good news is there’s hope, and a lot of help, as long as you’re tired of suffering in silence. Please know you are worthy of love, and help is always a phone call away.

I’m old enough to remember Instagram’s predecessor (Hipstamatic - a fun way to filter and crop your digital images, framing them like vintage film), before it was acquired by Facebook, becoming the social and commercial behemoth it is today. What was once my parking lot for scrapbook memories has become the collective highlight reel of what we prefer the World to see (“PICS or it didn’t happen!”), generating virtual realities, false narratives, and edited agendas serving personal (private, corporate, even government) interests. Question is, how much discernment are you using when posting and consuming social media?

is an inside job. Working from the outside in fails, as people always do in a fallen world. Finding harmony in moments of inner and outer alignment is an absolute blessing.

Scenes from a very mellow getaway where I found outer beauty realized within. ☯️

is a word almost exclusively applied to women. And why? The irony implied is that a woman should not hold positions of power, and when she asserts herself in ways outside of expected gender roles, this is considered “bad” and discouraged with shaming labels. Men and women are guilty of perpetuating the stigma, and together are responsible for creating more realistic standards that will benefit society as a whole. 🩷🩵

Like that print behind me, family doesn’t always make sense, but it’s uniquely beautiful when parts come together. Having a new experience with my mom this week - and she loved it! 🥰

I was 12 when I started doing my make-up (which at that time, included only mascara and clear gloss) but by the time I could drive, I was too self-conscious to leave the house without powder on my face, for fear of someone seeing me “undressed.” I went from a shy child to having uncontrollable social anxiety that was masked by cosmetics, exemplary academic performance, and later, s*x, drugs, and rock & roll. Plus ça change…

I’ve spent many years peeling back the layers, learning to hold gratitude and compassion for my inherent worth no matter how great my achievements or how miserable my failures. This is a daily practice, requiring renewed patience (never my forté), forgiveness, and Grace.

Today I enjoy getting glam as a celebration of my femininity, dressing up always feels finer, and I celebrate the happy, healthy life I’m creating for myself and others around me - not out of obligation or control, but from a place of joy. The most liberating feeling is being just as comfortable in my own skin - days’ old hair flying, running around in my PJ’s because this is The New Normal Times y’all and I’m here for it too. 🩷

Getting real about
I didn’t wake up like this. Truth is, I started slow, with a goal of running 30 minutes 3 days/week in 2016 after I had gained 20! pounds doing the endless food & wine tour falling in love with my (then) fiancé. I may (should) never be as thin as divorce weight, but learning how to balance nutrition and fitness to genuinely love my body from the inside out has been a where no 2 days are the same. That nagging voice that says I’m not good/pretty/thin/young enough to do and be whoever God made me to be is a nasty fu***ng liar, and it doesn’t matter what I look like on the outside, she still screams just as loud. Leaving this here for whoever needs to see & hear there’s hope on Day 1, and whatever goals you may reach for never count so long as you don’t learn to nurture and love that sweet baby girl on the inside. my friends 🙏🏼
