Last July I celebrated five years since forming my LLC and launching my business. And I’m not done celebrating.

Because today marks something different, and equally important. Five years ago today, I worked my last day at my prison job and stepped fully into this work.

The LLC had already been formed. I had been easing into it, seeing a handful of clients after work and on weekends, testing the waters.

But this was the day I leapt. After a quick read from “You Are a Badass, How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness…,” something in me said, “Enough. Trust yourself. Leap.”

So I did.

It was terrifying. I thought people would think I was crazy. Instead, they were supportive. Encouraging. Excited.

Three months in, I wanted to quit. And right before I was ready to tap out, something shifted.

Since then, it hasn’t been perfect.
It’s been work.
Growth.
Stretching.
Learning.

But mostly?

Trust.

I wasn’t proving anything. I was trusting. And that’s a lesson I witness in this room every week. Healing often asks us to trust a version of ourselves we haven’t fully seen yet. To move before we feel ready. To stay when it’s uncomfortable. To believe something is forming even when the path isn’t clear.

Five years later, I’m more grounded.
More steady.
More attuned.
More me.

I’m deeply connected to this work, and I’ve learned to protect access to my energy so I can show up well.

And that’s worth celebrating🥂

Grief doesn’t always need answers. Sometimes it needs time, steadiness, and somewhere you don’t have to explain yourself.

Journeying with Grief is an 8-week guided group for those carrying loss, transition, or change, including the quieter forms of grief that often go unnamed.

This is a small, live, virtual group held on Wednesday evenings, beginning February 4, offering space to sit with grief over time, without pressure to fix or rush what’s here.

If you’ve been feeling tired, disconnected, or “off” in ways you can’t quite name, it may not be burnout alone. It may be grief asking to be acknowledged.

Details and registration are available through the link in my bio.

A place to land.
Permission to feel.
Companionship over time.
Space to arrive... when you’re ready.

After the conversations, the reflections, and the grief experience shared back in November, it became clear that some grief doesn’t want a single moment of care.

It wants time.
It wants rhythm.
It wants a place you can return to without having to re-explain what you’re carrying.

Because of that, I’m opening registration for
Journeying with Grief, an 8-week guided healing group beginning Wednesday, February 4.

This is a small, live, online group for those who want a slower, steadier space to walk with grief over time, whether your grief comes from loss, transition, identity shifts, or endings that never had a clear goodbye.

No fixing.
No rushing.
No pressure to share more than feels right.

If this feels like a place you’ve been waiting for, you can find details and registration through the link in my bio.

A place to land.
Permission to feel.
Companionship over time.
And space to arrive... when you’re ready.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been speaking quietly about grief, how it shows up before the holidays, lingers after them, and often asks for more than a single moment of care.

What I’ve been holding is this:

Some grief doesn’t need fixing.
It needs time.
It needs rhythm.
It needs a place where you don’t have to reintroduce yourself each time the wave returns.

Because of that, I’m opening

"Journeying with Grief: An 8-Week Guided Healing Group"

beginning Wednesday, February 4, 2026.

This is a small, live, closed group for those who want a steady, compassionate space to walk with grief over time, whether your grief comes from loss, transition, identity shifts, or endings that never had a clear goodbye.

No rushing.
No fixing.
No pressure to share more than you want.

Just presence, gentle structure, and community at a pace that honors what you’re carrying.

If this feels like a place you’ve been waiting for, details and registration are available now.

Some things don’t ask for a single moment of care.

They ask for time.
For steadiness.
For somewhere you can return to when the waves keep coming.

Grief often isn’t loud or urgent.
It’s persistent.
It shows up in layers.
It revisits us when we slow down, when life changes, when the distractions fade.

And what many people discover is that one moment of support can be meaningful, but what actually helps is companionship over time.

A place where you don’t have to re-explain yourself.
Where you don’t have to rush insight or resolution.
Where what you’re carrying is allowed to unfold gradually.

I’ve been sitting with this truth quietly.
And I’ll be sharing more soon for those who feel ready.

I’ve been holding something quietly.

After sitting with the conversations, the reflections, and what’s been surfacing for so many people, it became clear that some grief doesn’t want a single moment of care.

It wants time.
It wants rhythm.
It wants somewhere steady to return to.

Not to fix what’s here.
Not to rush healing.
But to be accompanied while it unfolds.

I’ll be sharing something soon for those who feel ready for a slower, more sustained way of walking with grief.

No urgency.
No pressure.

Just an offering... when the timing feels right.

The holidays have a way of stirring grief before they arrive, and then amplifying it once they’re over.

Before, there’s often a quiet bracing.
A sense that something will feel different this year.
An awareness of what’s missing, changing, or no longer the same.

And after the holidays pass, when the structure dissolves and the distractions fade, there’s finally room to feel what’s been carried.

That’s when grief often gets louder.

You might notice:
– a heaviness settling in
– emotions surfacing unexpectedly
– exhaustion that rest doesn’t seem to touch
– a sense of loss without a clear name

This doesn’t mean you’re doing something wrong.
And it doesn’t mean you’re behind.

It often means grief finally has space.

Grief doesn’t follow the calendar.
It doesn’t arrive on cue.
And it doesn’t resolve just because a season ends.

What it asks for isn’t urgency...
It’s permission.

🕯️

After holding space for grief recently, something stayed with me.

Not everything needs a breakthrough moment.
Some things need time, continuity, and companionship.

Grief doesn’t ask to be solved.
It asks to be walked with.

And for many of us, especially after the intensity of the holidays or during seasons of transition, what we’re carrying doesn’t disappear once the calendar turns.

It waits.

What I’ve been reflecting on is how few places exist where grief is allowed to unfold slowly, without pressure to “feel better,” explain ourselves, or arrive at clarity too quickly.

Sometimes healing isn’t about a release.
It’s about having a place to return to.

I’ll be opening a small, guided grief group beginning in mid-January for those who feel called to walk with their grief over time.

No fixing. No rushing.
Just steady presence and gentle support.

More soon.

Today, we honor those who have worn the uniform, seen and unseen, loud and quiet, front line and behind the scenes. 🇺🇸

As an Air National Guard/Air Force veteran, my service was rooted in structure, responsibility, and showing up. I served as a Security Forces member in the 128th Air Refueling Wing and the 105th Airlift Wing guarding planes, people, and base premises, and doing the everyday work that keeps missions moving.

I wasn’t active duty. I served in the Guard, drilling and training while building a life outside the military. And there were times I quietly wondered if that was “enough” to really claim the word veteran... especially next to those who served full-time.

If you’ve ever felt that way too, this is for you:
Your service counts. Your time counts. Your commitment counts.

Today, I honor:
– Veterans who were active duty, Guard, or Reserve
– Veterans who deployed and those who didn’t
– Veterans who transitioned smoothly and those still finding their footing
– Veterans who are thriving and those quietly struggling with their mental health

Your story is valid. Your mental health matters. You are not invisible here.

To all veterans: thank you. I see you. I stand with you.

And today, I’m also honoring myself, an Air Force veteran who continues to serve through mental health. 💙

Happy Veterans Day. ❤️💙

✨Five Years of Reserved For You®✨

On July 24, 2020, I said yes to something bigger than me, and five years later, I’m still in awe.

Five years of learning.
Of stretching.
Of showing up and growing up, right alongside the people I’ve had the honor to work with.

I’ve learned I can do hard things and be okay.
I’ve learned what it means to wear all the hats (and drop a few).
I’ve learned the rhythm of rest and return, of making time for life, not just work.

But the greatest lessons?
They came from witnessing the people who’ve trusted me with their truth.
The ones who’ve come in anxious, grieving, unsure, untethered… and over time, have returned home to themselves.

I’ve watched magic emerge from the muck.

I’ve seen what happens when shame loosens its grip and worth is remembered.

I’ve witnessed the power of presence, the way healing happens in a safe space where you're not rushed, judged, or told who to be.

I’ve learned that my intuition isn’t just a quiet knowing, it’s a compass.

That we are all shaped by systems and stories that taught us to doubt our own brilliance.

That so many of us are more alike than we realize, carrying quiet fears, questioning our worth, thinking others have it more together than we do.

I’ve also learned I can’t help everyone, and I’m not meant to.

I’ve learned I don’t fit in boxes, so I built my own: expanding into coaching, holding space outside the bounds of traditional therapy.

Most of all, I’ve learned to trust:
Myself.
The process.
The people.
The work.
The timing.

To every client, every soul who’s let me in... thank you.
Thank you for your courage.
Thank you for trusting me to hold space for your becoming.
Thank you for allowing me to witness the transformation that happens when you see your own light.

Here’s to 5 years of Reserved For You®.
