Stepping Stones To Success Counseling & Consulting

07/23/2025

Today my little crew came with me to the Oxford office. Snacks, noise, questions, and all. This is real life as a mom, therapist, and business owner. It’s not always quiet or polished but it’s full of purpose. I built this space so I could serve others and still show up for my own. To every working mama trying to build something while raising someone, you are seen. Keep going. You’re doing better than you think. Every moment, every decision, every sacrifice is a stepping stone toward the life you’re building.

In honor of Juneteenth
Stepping Stones to Success Counseling & Consulting recognizes the profound importance of this day, not just as a historical milestone but as a call to continue the work of healing, liberation, and justice.

Juneteenth reminds us that freedom was delayed, voices were silenced, and trauma was carried across generations. Today, we honor the resilience of our ancestors and reaffirm our commitment to creating spaces where healing can take root.

We see you.
We hear you.
We walk with you through grief, growth, and generational restoration.

This is not just a day of reflection. It is a reminder that mental wellness is liberation, and every step we take toward healing is a step toward freedom.

With compassion and purpose,
The Stepping Stones Team

You don’t have to do it all to be a good mom. Take 10 minutes today just for you! Whether it’s a quiet cup of coffee, sitting in silence, journaling, or stepping outside for fresh air. You matter outside of your roles. Rest is not a reward. It’s a right.

With love,
Keyanna Peters

FOR 3 LOVING MOM'S ON MOTHER’S DAY❤️

🌸🌸🌸🌸GIVEAWAY🌸🌸🌸 🌸

At Stepping Stones to Success Counseling, we believe every mom deserves to be seen, supported, and celebrated. This Mother’s Day, we’re giving back in a special way; not to just one mom, but to three amazing mothers, each receiving a $50 gift (sent via CashApp or Venmo).

Why are we doing this?
Because we see the emotional labor, the invisible sacrifices, and the endless love that mothers pour out daily. And while a gift can’t cover all that moms do, it’s a small way of saying: we honor you, we appreciate you, and we’re cheering for you.

Here’s how to enter:

1. Like THIS post

2. Share it to your page

3. Tag a mom (or yourself) and write a few words to honor her

Let us be your village. Let’s take a moment to uplift the women who’ve been pouring into everyone else.

Three winners will be announced on Mother’s Day!

We are a multi-group private practice providing individual, family, group, school based, couples counseling and concierge therapy in Alabama and Georgia! In office and Telehealth available.

Evening Reflection Night 6💙🌱
Have you stopped and told yourself, “I love you?”

05/06/2025

Evening Reflection Night 5| It’s never too late💙🌱

It is not too late.
It is not too late to change your mind.
It is not too late to heal what hurt you.
It is not too late to grow beyond what tried to break you.

Tonight, let this be your reminder.
You are allowed to evolve. You are allowed to restart. You are allowed to dream a new dream, even if you are still untangling the old one.

Your mental health journey is not a race. It is not a straight line. It is a series of brave and quiet choices to keep showing up for yourself, even when it would be easier to walk away.

So take a breath.
Take one step.
Take your power back.
Because your story is still being written, and you are the author.

Evening Reflection | Night 4

You’re not behind.
You’re rebuilding.
Piece by piece, breath by breath
You’re becoming the version of you that honors both the healing and the hustle.

Pause tonight.

Celebrate the quiet ways you’ve shown up.

Journal Prompt:
What parts of you are being restored in this season?

Evening Reflection | Night 3
Sometimes growth looks like silence.
Not the kind that feels empty—but the kind where you're finally listening…
To your needs.
To your breath.
To your peace.

Tonight, give yourself permission to rest without guilt.
You don't need to earn rest—you deserve it.

How did you pour into yourself today?

EVENING REFLECTIONS | NIGHT 2 TOPIC: THE POWER OF THE PAUSE💙🌱

Evening Reflection Night 1: Get Out of the Car!

You ever pull up to the house… and just sit there?
The engine’s off, but your mind is racing. You’ve given everything today—work deadlines, after-school meltdowns, last-minute projects, dinner plans, emotional check-ins, and let’s not forget the 47 tabs open in your brain.

And now? You’re stuck. Parked. Still.

Mama, it’s time to get out of the car.

A wise friend once told me, “A cold sandwich never hurt anybody.” And they were right. The world won’t fall apart if you pause. Tonight, leave the cape in the front seat and walk in the house with permission to move slower.

Put on your favorite song and hum your way through the madness.
Draw a bath and let the water carry the weight.
Journal like you’re the main character—because you are.
Write yourself the most romantic love letter… because you deserve that kind of tenderness.
Then take all that chaos, tuck it gently under your pillow, and whisper to yourself: “Sweet dreams. You did enough.”

Let this be your nightly reminder: You are human. You are whole. And you deserve rest, too.
