Never Not Vulnerable
Isn’t a blog so 20-years ago…? I don’t know, but here we go. So, why a blog? Why be so vulnerable and transparent about very uncomfortable and difficult things? Because if I have learned anything in this exhausting and crazy-making decade, the only thing that can truly make the not-ok somewhat palatable is connection. Grief, loss, trauma…those bitches are isolating as fuck. They make us feel less-than. They make us feel “other”. They make us feel messy and difficult to love. Guess what? Those are lies. Well, maybe not the messy part, but the rest are lies that shame whispers to us that we can’t help but believe.
I’m here to tell you that I have felt ALL of that. Honestly, I still feel all of that. I’m starting a new path. A path that is focused on decades of trauma responses that no longer serve me, full of stories that are no longer authentic. I am tired of just trying to survive. I am ready to live my life and thrive. Watch out. It will get messy.
Welcome to my blog.
