Welcome!
Welcome to my corner of the internet, where I share my thoughts, reflections, and musings on the issues that matter most to me. I write about everything from mental health and the changes I’d love to see in education, to my personal growth experiences, climate action, sustainable living, and social justice. Writing is my way of making sense of the world, often through stream-of-consciousness style. My hope is that, through my writings, you might find something that teaches, inspires, or empowers you in your own journey.
And if you’re looking for a little ray of sunshine to get you through your day, visit my page with lots of positive affirmations!
I not only love writing about my own experiences and perspectives, I love sharing others’ inspiring stories, too. Please visit my Unshared Stories page below, where I share stories of personal growth, resilience, and overcoming challenges, including experiences with mental health, racism, and sexism. I promise these stories will open your eyes to new perspectives.

Can you really be “high functioning” with an eating disorder?
Living life in an ED is a very slippery slope. EDs thrive off of false highs and distorted realities. You think you’re fine.
