Happy 2023, friends! I am alive! Reports of my untimely demise were greatly exaggerated. Although, a part of me has been put to rest ever since I had my baby girl last May. Okay, I swear Iโm not being melodramatic (no more than usual). Let me explain.

You canโt totally escape the ugliness of this world. Itโs all around us, sometimes within us. But it isnโt what needs to define us. If youโre brave enough, and allow yourself to be vulnerable enough, you can and will overcome it. But donโt do it alone.
