My Story
Out of My Greatest Pain Came My Life's Work
The suffering and abuse I experienced as a child created aftershocks that followed me well into adulthood.
For years, I struggled to believe I had value. I didn't know how to ask for what I needed, establish healthy boundaries, or recognize when something wasn't right. Those beliefs shaped my relationships, my choices, and the stories I told myself about who I was.
But that wasn't the end of my story.
Through years of healing, hard work, faith, and more than a few fresh starts, I began challenging what I'd believed about myself. I discovered that what had happened to me didn't have to define what was possible for me. It was my floor. not my ceiling.
And somewhere along the way, my greatest pain began becoming my life's work.
I learned about relationships, marriage, parenting, boundaries, resilience, and the courage it takes to begin again. I learned that life can be beautiful even when it doesn't unfold the way we imagined.
Today, I don't share my story because I have everything figured out. I share it because I know what it's like to feel lost, overwhelmed, or alone--and I know that change is possible.
My hope is that something I've learned alone the way will make your journey a little easier.
You are not alone. You are not the only one.
