I haven’t talked about my book in a while… but I promise, it’s still coming. 💗 I’m in the process of putting some final touches on it, refining the parts that feel the most personal. But for now, here’s an excerpt that’s been sitting heavy on my heart:
Some chapters of life break you open… and some rebuild you in ways you never expected.
Writing *Shattered Roses: A Diary Through Rose-Colored Glass* forced me to revisit the hardest parts of my injury—the fear, the stillness, the questioning, the conversations with God I never thought I’d have.
There were days I felt purposeful… and days I felt abandoned. Days I leaned into faith… and days I cursed it. But somewhere in the middle of the chaos, a truth formed: Maybe this happened so I’d stop putting myself last. Maybe so I’d learn to rest. Maybe so I’d see my own strength outside of “doing,” “fixing,” or “showing up.”
This injury became my mountain—and climbing it taught me that even with fear, pain, and a thousand unknowns… I’m still capable. I’m still becoming. I’m still blooming.
🌹 *Shattered Roses* is my heart on paper. A diary through trauma, faith, healing, and rediscovering myself in the quiet. Thank you for being here while I share it with the world. 💗
