In therapy and in life, it’s often the small things that create the biggest shifts.

I found this little gem at Dollar Tree — Better Than Yesterday, a deck with 365 small, doable challenges to make each day just a little brighter.

💛 Today’s card: “Find a one-sentence mantra that speaks to you and repeat it throughout your day.”

What would your mantra be today?

Why my schedule was short last week—worth every second. 💛

As a therapist, I talk a lot about safety, connection, and regulation. Last week, I got to live that work in a whole new way—as a counselor at Camp Quest, an overnight camp for kids experiencing housing insecurity, through .

For 3 days, we created space for joy, silliness, and belonging. We swam, danced, did goat yoga 🐐, and let kids just be kids. Watching them laugh, trust, and open up was pure magic—and a powerful reminder of why this work matters.

What clients are actually talking about in therapy 👀🫣

“I didn’t feel an instant bond… and I still feel guilty.”
“I don’t feel like I’m allowed to struggle—because their job is harder.”

And maybe you’ve thought them too.
These aren’t shameful. They’re human.
They’re what we say when we’re finally given permission to stop pretending everything’s fine.

You’re not too much. You’re not alone.
You just need a place where you don’t have to filter the truth.

Today, On Maternal Mental Health Day, we honor the parts of motherhood that don’t make it to baby books.

The grief.
The guilt.
The rage you never saw coming.
The numbness you’re too afraid to name.
The tears in the car before going back inside.

You are not alone in this.
And you don’t have to keep carrying it on your own.

There is support.
There is healing.
There is help that actually helps.

💛 Take today to make a change for yourself even if it’s just one small step.

🤍 If this speaks to you, or someone you love, share it. Someone out there might need this reminder more than you know.

Today, on International Firefighters' Day, we hold space for the heroes and the hearts behind the helmets. 👩‍🚒 🔥

Firefighters are known for their bravery on the frontlines, but so often, the weight they carry behind the scenes goes unseen.

At Rooted Transitions, we honor the full picture, not just the courage, but also the complexity of what it means to serve.

And we stand alongside the families who support them, loving through long shifts, missed milestones, and the unspoken worries.

To every firefighter and fire family, you deserve support, too. ❤️

Today we hold space for the mothers whose grief lives quietly beneath the surface.

💚 Whether your pain is fresh or decades old, you are remembered.
🌿 Whether your story is shared or silent, you are seen.
🌱 Whether your child lived days, years, or only in your heart, you are still a mother.

There’s so much that gets left out of the conversation. The raw, messy, confusing parts of postpartum that don’t fit the “grateful mom glow” narrative. 💛

Whether you're in it now or have been through it before, save this, share it, or send it to someone who needs to know: they are not alone.
✨ You can love your baby and still struggle.
✨ You can have a “healthy birth” and still feel deeply shaken.
✨ You can ask for help and you deserve to be met with compassion.

Let’s keep normalizing the truth about postpartum mental health. One slide, one story, one mama at a time. 💬👇
