Continuing off of the trauma theme with the posts I wrote last week and the week before, this week I wanted to focus on healing. Healing is a big part of life after trauma. Whether you choose to heal or not, that decision will affect your life greatly. How do I know? Because I spent …
Trauma is a heavy word. There are so many definitions, so many assumptions, so many feelings and so many associations. In reality, it can mean very different things to different people. When it comes down to it, trauma is a situation that alters your mind or body in a negative way. It makes you feel …
I really want to get more organized, but I’m sort of all over the place these days. If you don’t believe me, just take one look at my instagram. I have my blog which is empowerment and healing, and I have my etsy shop which is selling products. Then I have motherhood and pregnancy and …
Hello everyone! It’s time for another guest post. This week’s amazing writer is Deborah Cherrey, who I met not too long ago but was immediately impressed with.

But sometimes, a little pampering is exactly what you need. Stress is a killer. There are so many negative …
Guest post time! Where to even start with my introduction to Kaitlyn Signorelli? I guess I would say that when thinking about confidence, empowerment or strength, she is one of the first women to come to mind! She is such a powerhouse and yet still so kind- it really is amazing. Kaitlyn and I were …
