Limitations of Giving and the Disease to Please
I’ve sat a lot with this recently. I used to be huge on the giving spectrum until I started noticing the patterns where it wasn’t reciprocated. Do you know what I did? I started withholding. In the time being, I had to learn how to rebrand people pleasing tendencies. Was I giving because I wanted their approval or was I giving because my cup was full and I felt happy to? Hearing this may sound harsh, but there was a time I reduced my efforts and didn’t want to replenish them
Reflecting on a Year of Sacrifice and Faith
As 2025 draws to a close, I'd like to share my chosen phrase and action step for the year. I stopped making New Year's resolutions at the start of 2024 and opted for something simpler to build character. Two years ago, I focused on 'being intentional,' and by the end, I could reflect on being intentional with relationships and decisions. This year, my focus was on 'being sacrificial.' The phrase that has guided me through 2025 is “God’s got you.” This year has brought many ch
From Tears to Triumph: Trusting God Through Pain to Experience His Glory
Pain often feels like a heavy burden that weighs down the spirit. It comes before healing, before peace, and before the blessings we long for. Yet, this journey through hardship is not without purpose. The struggles we face are part of a process that leads to rejoicing and reveals more of God’s character. When we trust Him through the difficult moments, we open ourselves to experience His glory in ways we never imagined. Blooming through hardship builds character, but it all
What comes from the soul, does not have to stay there.
Immerse yourself in the beauty of written emotions that capture the essence of desire and solitary sentiment.
My Portfolio
Below, you’ll find selections of my work. I invite you to see who I was and still being called to become.
The Words I Couldn't Say
This series encases a few letters I have written that I will never send. I initially typed them up in a notepad in my phone, then I decided to take a trip to the beach with a journal and a pen. Where I would write them out while enjoying the afternoon sun and hang out until after sunset. When the crowds died down, I ripped out the pages and read them to the sea for my words to be carried away with every wave. After I vocalized what was written, I lit the physical copies on fire. The ashes represented a feeling of release from the shackles that weighed me down, and this was the beginning of change.
Everything I Could Say
For as long as I can remember, I have been silent. Silent in a way that was detrimental to my very core. At first, I used silence to observe a room, but then it shifted into a personal superpower- invisibility. Inevitably, I cloaked myself into hiding and shying away from speaking up at all. I muted myself. Lately, I have learned to speak up, and here you will be able to read all the words I could say. These letters are retellings of conversations had, thoughts from my mind and some handwritten and sent to people whom I had much to say and had the bravery to do so. The words of strong empowerment require a mighty fee of courage.
All Things Prayed
Here is a collection of prayers that were scripture lead and circumstance inspired. Praying can range from all types of feelings. Some are uncomfortable, some are pleasantly expressing gratitude, some are heartfelt, some are cries for help, some are worship and some are simple conversations. There is no right or wrong way to pray, but it does begin with one choice today.
Poems Written
Here is a collection of poems written over the years. The ones you find here will not be published in the book I am constructing, but they are written by yours truly. I hope you enjoy reading pieces of history I have felt and poured my heart into. May the words touch you in a personal way. Art and poetry are subject to perspective and that's the beauty behind the scenes. Read to your hearts content and stay tuned to support the publishing of my future book.
