I’ve been quiet on here for a while, and I feel like I owe you an update. Life has been heavy lately, and it’s forced me to step back from my business in ways I never imagined.
The last time I posted, I shared about the complications I was having from a wisdom tooth removal. Unfortunately, those complications continued to worsen, and I’m now facing a recovery that could take up to a year.
At the same time, we discovered a hidden water leak and mold in our home. It turns out the company that redid our siding accidentally covered the AC drain, causing it to back up inside our walls. We’ve been dealing with remediation and retesting after the first cleanup failed — and we’ve been sick with mold symptoms for months.
To top it all off, the tech company that was supposed to fix my business computer wiped it clean. In an instant, years of work building my business disappeared.
It’s hard to even put into words what the last few months have been like. This is honestly the tip of the iceberg compared to everything we’ve faced and I’m completely exhausted. My life feels flipped upside down, and I’ve been left numb and overwhelmed.
I’m sharing this not for sympathy, but because I want to be transparent with those who’ve supported me and my business. This season has been brutal. I’m still believing that healing, restoration, and brighter days are ahead — for me, my family, and for Audacious Herb. But it’s important to understand that I have several months of recovery, for my health, my business, my family, my home and farm, and, quite frankly, my sanity.
Thank you for your patience, your prayers, and your support. It means more than I can say.
