I was adulting with no blueprint. Carrying unspoken family pressure, identity confusion, emotional burnout — and somehow still trying to keep it cute and functional.
And when it came to workouts?
You might’ve fallen for those aesthetic routines that looked cute but barely survived the week.
I know what it’s like to look fine on the outside but feel overwhelmed inside—that quiet heaviness no one sees. It’s why I became a therapist: to offer the kind of support I needed at 19 or 20—the kind that makes you feel seen and held when life feels confusing, heavy, and just... off.
For years, I downplayed being hard of hearing like it wasn’t a real part of me. I told myself it didn’t matter… until I realized it shaped everything about how I moved through the world. Embracing that part of me changed everything. That’s when real self-trust and healing finally began.
I learned that speaking up isn’t being dramatic—it’s choosing yourself. And that changes everything.
It all changed when I stopped running. I faced my patterns, moved through the discomfort, and that’s when the real baddie in me showed up—confident, grounded, and fully alive. That’s what I want for you too: a life that feels authentic and aligned, even in the messy moments.

I’m a sucker for long walks, healing convos, and finding meaning in the messy stuff.
I send 10-minute voice notes to my bestie, then play them back like a podcast
I lift heavy, but my playlists are 80% R&B and oldies.
I can talk astrology, attachment theory, and manifestation in the same convo — with a side of hot takes that somehow still make sense.
Nature isn’t optional in my healing — I set intentions under the moon and believe the sun is medicine.
