At twenty-four, I thought motherhood would feel natural. Instead, it unraveled me. Postpartum depression, anxiety, isolation, and a crushing sense of failure reshaped my identity and distorted how I saw both myself and God. This is the story of how false beliefs bound me—and how the truth of being fully known and fully loved began setting me free.
In a moment of desperation, I cried out to Jesus and began a journey that changed my relationship with alcohol and with God. What started in fear and loneliness became a path toward healing, hope, and feeling better—body, mind, and spirit. You are not alone, and you don’t have to walk this journey by yourself.
Does Jesus really want me to love this person? When resentment, prayer, and self-righteousness collided, God gently flipped my perspective—and my heart—teaching me to see hard-to-love people through His redemptive love.
A month before my wedding, I realized that marriage wouldn’t fix a relationship where I couldn’t fully be myself. Calling off my wedding became the start of a healing journey rooted in therapy, faith, and learning to love who God created me to be. As I stopped settling and allowed God’s love—and the love of others—to fill me, I discovered my worth and eventually met my husband, a much healthier fit. Now, as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I’m passionate about helping women heal, build self-esteem, and trust God’s timing as they prepare for healthy relationships and marriages.
Raised in chaos, I once believed disorder was normal. But God gently began teaching me that His peace is steady, powerful, and capable of rebuilding what’s been broken. This is the story of unlearning old patterns, choosing holy disruption, and discovering a life rooted in peace, purpose, and freedom.
