Each morning when I drop my kids off at school, I pass a small booth with freshly picked flowers.

Once a week, I treat myself + those I am lucky to serve to a bouquet.

The simple act of bringing that freshness into my office has become a grounding ritual—a moment that says: slow down, breathe, and be present.

I had the honor of speaking at Recovery + Reentry Confrence, where I shared insights on trauma, gender informed responsiveness and collaborative strategies as womens re-enter into the community from incarceration.

Grateful for the opportunity to connect with so many passionate professionals dedicated to improving behavioral health field and those we have the honor of serving. These conversations are vital as we continue to break down stigma and build a more compassionate future.

Thank you to the organizers, fellow speakers, and everyone who attended—your engagement and thoughtful questions made the day unforgettable!

We talk a lot about physical health, but what about your mind?

Mental health is just as real and just as important.

Whether you're dealing with stress, anxiety, past stuff, or just feeling off—you’re not alone.

Healing starts when we stop pretending we’re “fine” and start being real.

If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always gotten.
Read that again.
Growth doesn’t come from comfort zones.

Whether it's your mindset, habits, relationships, or career — repeating the same patterns will only lead to the same results.

Feeling stuck? That’s your cue to shift something. Even a small change can create a ripple effect.

Start with one step.
One brave decision.
One new way of thinking.

Your future self will thank you.

As I walked into work, I saw a mallard duck sitting peacefully on the rocks — right in the middle of a busy commercial area.

It was such a calm moment in the chaos. A reminder that even in noisy, stressful places, peace can exist — and so can we.

Take a breath. Be gentle with yourself. You’re doing the best you can.
