About

So... you're probably wondering why there are no pictures of my face, right? Because weird! Who writes a personal blog and doesn't even show what they look like?! Well, me. I do. Because stranger danger, people! This is the internet. I want to share my life without being stalked, so that's just how it is.

​

A little about me... I am in my mid-twenties and work full-time at a challenging yet rewarding job, I have a bachelor's degree in psychology and am working on my master's degree in clinical mental health counseling, I've been married to my husband for about six years, and I'm a mother to a toddler.

​

Why write a blog? I wanted to try out a new hobby, honestly. Also, there seems to be so much pressure to be perfect and have a perfect life. I thought it wouldn't hurt to share some of my ups and downs so that people can see some reality. So often we see everyone's best with all the flaws edited out.

 

Like on social media. We see the good picture that came after the twenty not-so-great ones, it's taken at the right angle, all the blemishes are removed, and maybe there's even a filter applied. People share their successes, their vacations, perfect family pictures, new cars... all the great things.

 

So this blog is a little dose of reality to show you that things can be good, and that doesn't mean they're always perfect. What you may get out of reading this blog is a self-esteem boost, reassurance that your experiences are normal, a break from your own life, a different perspective... and possibly some other things. My purpose in writing this blog is to normalize imperfection. So, let's keep it real.
