  • Protecting my peace has become one of the most important parts of my life. Not in a dramatic, “cut everyone off” kind of way — but in a quiet, intentional way that honors my energy, my boundaries, and the woman I’m becoming. Peace isn’t something I wait for anymore. It’s something I create. Here are…

  • What Year Would I Relive?

    I would redo 2021 if I could. That was very bad year for me, I made bad financial choices, bad career choices. A four-year relationship ended, and I was following a path that wasn’t meant for me. First off, I would have ended that four-year relationship much sooner. I wasn’t happy in it, and I…

  • As I get older, I’m becoming more intentional about the voices I allow into my life. Not everyone deserves a front‑row seat. Not every opinion deserves space in my mind. And not every mindset aligns with the woman I’m becoming. I’ve learned that protecting my peace isn’t about cutting people off — it’s about recognizing…

  • What Tattoo Would I Get?

    I already have nine tattoos. But, I am planning number ten. I’m going to get a tattoo of a medieval weapon, a flail with a battle worn handle, and at the end of the chain, a spiked heart instead of a ball. It’s going to be cracked in the middle with blood dripping out of…

  • I would tell my 20-year-old self to be careful who you allow into your life. Anyone can call themselves a friend but, not everyone wearing a friendly face has good intentions. You will discover that many of your “friends” are snakes. Some gossip about you, some are secretly competing with you, some are using you…

  • Just a Ramble

    I have been working on posting more. But I’m not always sure what to write about. I’m still figuring out my own life and trying new things. I began a class for school a few weeks ago. Microeconomics, and it is very interesting but a little confusing at times. Doesn’t help that I have been…

  • Sometimes you have to become the villain. Not the cruel kind. Not the dramatic, destructive kind. Just the version of yourself who finally says no, sets boundaries, steps back, and walks away when something costs too much of your peace. For most of my life, I tried to be the good girl. I said yes…

  • I’ve only been camping once. I was eight or nine years old at the time and the camping trip was with a church youth group. It was a lot of fun. Though my silly ass thought the trip would be for a week, but it was only one night. I was disappointed. I spent most…

  • I have been thinking a lot about finances lately. Started learning about financial literacy and trying to shop more intentionally. I was at Ulta yesterday for a new exfoliator and I wanted to smell some perfume. I didn’t buy any, but I did get my exfoliator as well as some new eyeliner. I did feel…
