I'm on this journey to heed the healing call my soul's been begging me to answer and I'd love for you to join me!
With so much happening (in my personal life, politically, and worldwide) I've already had to take a break from writing. I did the thing though. I started my blog at least at heedthehealing.com

I'll update it after I collect my bearings 😞

Much love and hugs to all of those that need it right now

I did several hard things this past month:
✍🏽started the blog at heedthehealing.com but already had to take a hiatus (brb)
📜 Got a divorce after 9 long years
🏳️‍🌈 Came out to my mom (she wasn't supportive)
🙅🏽‍♀️ Continued to set boundaries

This healing journey isn't over yet...

Good morning, team! ☀️

As the sprinter runs out of steam, the runner trained in long distance hits their stride. Steady, strong and calm - this is the cadence and the heartbeat of the Resistance.

We're seeing this play out now.

This is awesome!
Hey #Booksky if you’re in the US and looking to step away from the zon for physical books can I highly recommend Thrift Books?

They donate and partner with non-profits to support school libraries in underserved areas, and prison libraries. Plus, the book prices are *very good*

Today, our gentle reminder that there isn't an 'astonishing' rise in autistic people.
We've always been here.
Most of us weren't counted in the figures, before, because they were looking for the young white boys who collect trains.
They got better at finding us.
Thanks for reading.

Gaslighting 101: See it, say it, and no matter what don't let them try to tell you otherwise. Don't let them try to twist reality. The truth is easier to remember than many lies. WE KNOW THE TRUTH.

My autistic stepbrother is non verbal most of the time but lately he's been expressing how helpless he feels with the current state of the world. The only advice I could offer is to keep doing things that make him smile and to take a break from the news when he can.

Sometimes that's all we can do.

If you did a really hard and scary thing this week, I'm proud of you! You showed up for yourself in ways that maybe others hadn't before and that's really huge!

I did too and am still going through it. Join me in my journey at heedthehealing.com

We've got this!

Running in Reverse

I'd left Oklahoma almost ten years ago to escape all of the pain I'd gone through while I was here. A bright eyed teen's spirit was hijacked/gaslit/and broken by the local town pedophile and when I tried to leave he tried to kill me. Not even a year later I'd gotten pregnant/had…

I'd left Oklahoma almost ten years ago to escape all of the pain I'd gone through while I was here. A bright eyed teen's spirit was hijacked/gaslit/and broken by the local town pedophile and when I tried to leave he tried to kill me. Not even a year later I'd gotten pregnant/had a miscarriage with someone who pressured me into marrying them not even a month after I'd lost my baby.

I’ll be sharing personal reflections, practical healing tips, and poetry—because sometimes, emotions are best expressed in verse. If you're on a journey of self-discovery, I’d love for you to join me. Let’s navigate this together.

For a long time, I prioritized others over myself, lost in cycles of self-doubt and pain. But healing isn’t about erasing the past—it’s about listening to ourselves, honoring our experiences, and finding light even in the darkest moments. Join me on this journey of self-discovery!
