this is what it looks like when a bunch of strangers decide silence isn’t an option anymore.

Prenatal depression came back this pregnancy. Only this time, it came back even heavier.

There were many days during my first trimester where my mind went to some really dark places. It scared me. And if you’ve ever experienced depression, you know how isolating it can feel. Add moving to a new state, being pregnant, and trying to show up for your kids, and some days felt impossible.

But something beautiful happened in the middle of all of it.

People showed up.

Friends, family, strangers… people who had no idea how much they were carrying me just by being there. They reminded me that even when I couldn’t see the light, I wasn’t walking through the darkness alone.

I’m trying to count my blessings, even on the days it’s hard.

I don’t believe depression is beautiful. It’s painful, confusing, and exhausting. But I do believe God can bring beauty from it. It has made me ask deeper questions. It has made me slow down. It has reminded me what really matters. It has taught me that strength sometimes looks like asking for help instead of pretending you’re okay.

I don’t have all the answers yet. But I do know this:

I’m here to love deeply. To raise my babies. To tell the truth about the hard parts. And if sharing my story helps even one person feel less alone, then every vulnerable conversation has been worth it.

If you’re quietly fighting a battle no one else can see, I’m so glad you’re still here. 🤍

yes, i am exactly who i think i am.

One year ago, conflict broke out along Cambodia’s border, upending the safety and stability of so many. Now, nearly 30,000 people remain internally displaced and unable to return home.

Cambodia has always been a special country for me and my family. This is my son’s country of birth, our home is here, and for over 20 years, we’ve worked with a fully locally-led team on conservation and community development. The Maddox Foundation is headquartered on the same border where the recent conflict took place.

I have had the honor of becoming close friends with my neighbors and the Foundation team as we demined and developed the area together.

When the fighting broke out last year, we had to evacuate our staff and their families — a painful reminder of just how quickly conflict can return.

I love this country and its resilient, warm people. While we’re grateful to have resumed our work protecting the land and supporting the community’s health and livelihoods, my heart is with everyone still waiting to come home.

ខ្ញុំស្រឡាញ់ប្រទេសមួយនេះ និងប្រជាជនដែលមានភាពរឹងមាំ ព្រមទាំងពោរពេញដោយភាពកក់ក្តៅ និងរួសរាយរាក់ទាក់។ បេះដូងរបស់ខ្ញុំនៅជាមួយអ្នករាល់គ្នា ដែលនៅតែទន្ទឹងរង់ចាំថ្ងៃដែលអាចវិលត្រឡប់ទៅផ្ទះរបស់ខ្លួនវិញ។
