🌿 March 2025: When Healing Became Real
In March 2025, I started telling my story again — but this time differently. I stopped giving details. I stopped reliving the scenes. I stopped trying to convince anyone of what happened.

My Journey to Loving Myself Again While Becoming Soul Happy, Soul Free
For years I asked myself over and over why I was never good enough, why love was so painful and then overthinking began, the anxiety, the lack of confidence, the depression, the sadness, the self hate, the self sabotage, the thoughts of suicide. The journey has not been easy, and some days I didn’t thinkContinue reading “My Journey to Loving Myself Again While Becoming Soul Happy, Soul Free”
