You ever look back at a version of yourself and realize she was holding her breath every single day just to make it look like she was “good”? Yeah… that was me. I filed for divorce. And not because I failed — but because I finally decided to live. For so long I was performing happy. Smiling on the outside while drowning on the inside… convincing myself that being “strong” meant staying silent, staying put, staying small. Whew. The way peace hits different when you stop forcing a life that’s suffocating you. In this episode, I’m opening up about choosing myself. About letting go of perfection, freeing myself from a life that wasn’t aligned, and stepping into the most authentic, rested, joyful version of me. And I’m sharing it not for gossip, not for attention — but because I know another woman is listening right now feeling trapped in a story she never actually chose. If you need a sign that it’s okay to prioritize your peace… baby, this is it. You can rebuild. You can rewrite the narrative. You can choose you — without shame, without performing strength, and without explaining yourself to anyone. Let’s talk about what liberation really feels like on the other side. And if you’re on your own healing journey — whether you’re a mama, in a transition, or learning how to stand in your truth again — I got you. My book Flow Feminine Wellness is filled with guidance, recipes, herbs, and rituals to nourish you from the inside out. You can also shop my teas, creams, and supplements, or work with me as your digital doula if you’re reclaiming your womanhood and your life. Because we don’t just survive seasons like this — we rise softer, stronger, and more aligned than ever.
