POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

We asked 15 women veterans two simple questions:

➡️ What are you struggling with?
➡️ What do you hope to get out of today?

Their answers were different, but the themes were remarkably similar.

Identity.
Isolation.
Hyper-independence.
PTSD.
A longing for community.

These women didn’t show up simply because they wanted to learn how to surf.

They showed up because they wanted to feel connected, to themselves, to each other, and to something bigger than the struggles they’ve been carrying alone.

This is why Her Resilient Sea exists. 🌊🫶🏻

Hi, I’m Taylor.

Wife, mom, sister, friend, Marine Corps veteran, former elite athlete, and women’s life coach. I am now on the path to becoming a mental health counselor.

I work with high-performing women who look “fine” on the outside but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck on the inside.

You don’t need to try harder.

You need regulation, self-connection, and support.

If that resonates, you’re in the right place 🤍

Tag a woman you know who needs to connect with this message! 💋

Women veterans face a unique and often invisible burden.

High rates of trauma, PTSD, identity loss after service, and systems that were never built with us in mind.

These factors contribute to suicide rates more than twice as high as civilian women.

This isn’t a resilience problem.

It’s a support problem.

If this resonates with you or someone you love, help is available.

This is your reminder that we are all forces of nature, infinitely connected to one another. 🌊

Each of us carries a unique purpose and calling in this life. One that continues to evolve, shift, and unfold as we do.

Give yourself permission to grow, to change direction, and to pursue what calls to you, even when you don’t know where it will lead.

If something both terrifies you AND excites you, please, keep going. ✨

You don’t get to control everything life throws your way.

The unexpected. The uncertainty. The setbacks. The things that don’t go according to plan.

But you do get to decide how you show up through it all.

Some days that looks like strength. Other days, softness, slowing down, letting go, or finding a reason to laugh in the middle of the chaos.

The goal isn’t to control life. It’s to learn how to move WITH it.

Less resistance. More presence. More joy.

Life is going to keep spinning. Make sure you respond with intention vs reaction.💃🏼

High standards don’t have to come with harsh self-judgment.

You can want to grow, improve, and do better while still being kind to yourself along the way.

The way you speak to yourself matters.

You don’t have to criticize yourself into becoming a better version of yourself.

Different women. Different journeys. Different definitions of success.

One thing in common? The courage to bet on themselves.

From chasing lifelong dreams to navigating motherhood, career transitions, and personal growth.

I’m so proud of these women, not just for what they’ve accomplished, but for who they’ve become along the way.

Thank you for trusting me to be part of your journeys. 🤍

Here’s to defining success on your own terms.

I’m really good at getting things done. Performing well. Being productive. Achieving things.

But something I’m intentionally working on is becoming more congruent.

Meaning, I want how I show up on the outside to reflect how I actually feel on the inside.

I want to become more attuned to my emotions. Not just because they influence so much of how we think and behave, but because I deserve to feel good while striving for great things.

And so do you.

We don’t have to choose between achievement and well-being. Between ambition and peace.

My hope is that by intentionally practicing behaviors that support how I WANT to feel, stress, overwhelm, and uncertainty won’t have so much power over me.

Maybe I’ll get better at reaching for my tools when life feels uncomfortable, instead of defaulting to pushing harder.

And maybe I’ll find more room for laughter, joy, and connection along the way.

Because I don’t just want to build a life that looks good.

I want to build a life that FEELS good, too.

So, here’s my question for you:

How do you want your week to FEEL?

Tell me below. 🤍

I’ve lost loved ones to suicide.

I’ve watched family members battle their demons and become chained to addiction.

I’ve seen trauma keep people trapped in cycles of pain and survival.

I’ve faced my own shadows, and I still dance with them daily.

I’ve white-knuckled my way through life, hidden behind performance, and suffered in silence.

Through it all, I’ve developed a deep passion for helping others find hope, reclaim their lives, and believe that healing is possible.

In honor of World Mental Health Day, let this be your reminder:

Asking for help does not make you weak.

You don’t have to keep pretending you’re okay. You don’t have to carry it all alone. And you don’t have to earn support by reaching your breaking point.

Sometimes the strongest thing you can do is admit you’re struggling and allow someone to walk beside you.

The courage to ask for help might just be what sets you free.

Please, don’t go through life alone. 💚

I know what it’s like to lose yourself in the pursuit of success.

Now I help high-performing women redefine success on their own terms.

From performance to peace. 💙

Stop wasting energy trying to be liked by everyone.

Redirect that energy toward becoming more competent, confident, and grounded in what you bring to the table.

You don’t need everyone’s approval to be an effective leader. 🔥

There is power in a woman who trusts herself.

Adversity may shape us.
Trauma may change us.
Systems may try to silence, diminish, or define us.

But we do not need permission to take up space.
We do not need approval to trust what we know.
And we do not have to make ourselves smaller to make others comfortable.

There is power in our voices.
There is power in our intuition.
There is power in our ability to stand together.

Strong women don’t just survive.

We use what we’ve learned to make the path safer, freer, and wider for the girls and women coming after us.

Trust yourself.
Use your voice.
Keep going. 🔥
