There are seasons that grow you, and there are seasons that wake you up.
This was the year that cracked me open—not to break me, but to return me to myself.

Through divorce, grief, and the quiet wisdom of my own nervous system, I began to see the truth I had been avoiding. What felt like loss slowly revealed itself as delivery. What felt like an ending became an awakening.

This three-part reflection is not about what I lost—it’s about who I found on the other side of survival. The woman who no longer confuses endurance with love. The woman who no longer abandons herself to keep the peace. The woman who is still becoming—fully, boldly, and without apology.

2025 has been a challenging year for many of us, but the truth is this: if you’re still breathing, you’re still in the fight. In this heartfelt reflection, I share how tears, uncertainty, and struggle can become the foundation of your testimony — and how God uses every season, even the hardest ones, for your good.

This morning, a simple journaling exercise turned into a powerful reminder of Psalm 139:14: I am fearfully and wonderfully made. What began as writing down two things I like about myself became a deeper reflection on worth, self-respect, and learning to love what God already loves—me.

Let them misunderstand. Let them talk. Let them go.
You? You’re moving forward — full of power, peace, and purpose.
