The roots of who I am began here — in the quiet shadows of childhood, where fawning first took shape. These stories trace the tender beginnings, the silences I kept, and the ways I learned to shrink before I learned to grow.
As I step out of the cage, no longer bending to keep the peace, I’m learning to say no without guilt, to stand tall, and live unapologetically. I am slowly, but surely reclaiming my voice and running wild in my own truth.
Motherhood cracked me open and is rebuilding me. In raising my children, I’m raising myself — trading fear and approval for courage and honesty. I am learning to turn my fawning into freedom, and my softness into strength.
From the quiet of fawning — where I softened myself to keep others comfortable — to the freedom of being fully seen.
This is the path between who I thought I had to be and who I am becoming.
Here, I let go of trying to earn my place and stand firmly in it instead.
If you’ve ever made yourself smaller to belong, remember this: your voice matters, and your needs are valid.
Your presence is enough.
You were always meant to live fully, boldly, absolutely.
