Sometimes you just have to say yes and see where the day takes you. 🥹✨

What started as a regular Saturday turned into such a beautiful experience at @sipandtell.offical. My good friend @tahnee_campbell was gifted tickets and brought me along, and I’m so glad she did. 🥂

@elasah_ created such a warm, intimate space, good conversations, GOOD food and some amazing non-alcoholic wines. Being on my no-alcohol journey made this experience even more special. 💛

And somehow l ended the day at the first stinger game of the season. 🏈😂

Great first game of the season, the energy was definitely there!

What a weekend. More days like this, please. 🥹💛

Some conversations only happen in our hearts 💙

If I had one more minute with my mom, this is how I imagine it would go.

It’s been 16 years, but there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think of her. Becoming a mother myself has made me appreciate her love, her sacrifices, and all the moments we never got to share.

If you’re missing someone today, I hope this reminds you that love doesn’t disappear. It stays with us in the memories we carry and the lives we continue to build.

07/09 🕊️

🤍This one is for everyone who’s wishing they had just one more conversation.

If this touched your heart, leave a 🤍 in the comments.

I thought running would change my body. I didn’t expect it to save my life.

I thought the goal was weight loss.

But somewhere between the early mornings, the hard days, the setbacks, and the miles…

I found confidence.
I found resilience.
I found freedom.

Most importantly, I found myself.

The body changed.
But so did the woman looking back in the mirror.

❤️ What has changed most about you in the last 10 years?

I used to think falling back in love with your life meant changing everything.

A new job.
A new body.
A new chapter.

What I’ve learned at 39 is that it starts much smaller than that.

It starts when you make time for yourself.
When you keep promises to yourself.
When you stop waiting for the perfect moment.
When you choose growth over comfort.

Little by little, those small choices become a life you’re proud of.

And one day, you realize you’re not just getting through life anymore.

You’re actually living it again.

What’s one thing that’s helping you fall back in love with your life? 💙

Losing weight wasn’t the thing that changed my life.

Running gave me:
1. Discipline when motivation disappeared.
2. Confidence I couldn’t fake.
3. Mental toughness on hard days.
4. Consistency in other areas of my life.
5. A healthier relationship with myself.
6. An outlet for stress and anxiety.
7. More energy than I had in my 20s.
8. Patience with the process.
9. Proof that small actions add up.
10. The belief that I can do hard things.

The weight loss was just the bonus.

These 10 things are why I keep showing up.

What change are you most proud of that nobody can see? 👇

and that counts more than you think.

some days it’s not about progress…
it’s just about not quitting.

if this hit you today… just leave a ❤️

Running hurts.

It started with one run. Then another. Then another.

Some days I wanted to quit.
Some days I did quit.
And some days I surprised myself.

I’ve come a long way from where I started.

Running has given me confidence, discipline, and proof that I’m capable of more than I ever thought.

It’s not always easy.
My body doesn’t always love it.

But every km reminds me that growth happens when you keep showing up.

Running didn’t just change my body.

It changed me. ❤️🏃🏾‍♀️

At 29, I was chasing approval.
At 39, I’m chasing peace, purpose, and the life I truly want.

A decade of unlearning what everyone else expected of me and learning to trust myself.

Here’s to the next chapter. 🎉

I’m a 39-year-old mom of 3, and I’m not ashamed to admit that I need running.

Not because I’m chasing a smaller body.

Because running reminds me that I can do hard things.

It got me through hard seasons, gave me confidence I didn’t know I had, and after breaking my ankle, it taught me to be grateful for every step.

If my journey reminds one woman that it’s never too late to start or start again, then sharing it is worth it.

❤️ Double tap if you’re still writing your comeback story.
