Keeping the Fairytale Alive
Watching fairytales after my marriage ended wasn’t denial. It was how I protected my belief in love while my heart was still healing.
"Oh, He'll Be Back..."
Being told “he’ll be back” gave me hope. But it also forced me to confront a deeper question: would I really want a love that leaves without accountability and returns without repair?
Do What You Got to Do
Doing what I had to do, even when it bruised my pride, became one of the moments I’m most proud of in my journey after divorce.
Grab Your Light
Grabbing my light didn’t mean pretending the darkness wasn’t there. It meant choosing, again and again, not to stay in it.
Let Your Heart Break

Let the Tears Flow
Healing didn’t come from being strong. It came from letting myself cry through the quiet, ordinary moments where loss showed up the loudest.
The First Social Outing
My first social outing after my marriage ended taught me that healing isn’t about pushing through discomfort; it’s about knowing when to step back and protect your heart.
