I've been keeping journals since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm so glad to share some of my most intimate life moments with you here! Here, you'll find inspirational and encouraging stories of me and other broken people like me.

I can't wait to connect with you in this beautiful safe space.

She is smart, funny and even in her corniest moments, she is MAGNIFICENT. She’s a wonderful cook, an amazing example of what a woman […]
