This Self-Love Sunday I am grateful for the opportunity to check a box off on my vision board. I have a degree! Now, I have to figure out who I am in this new season. I have to learn and re-learn myself. I'm excited for this season even though I've witnessed how mentally taxing it can be and already has been.

I am a writer and applied mathematician. I am an introvert who loves writing and sharing my words with the world. Poetry saved my life on so many different occasions so I know that words are incredibly powerful. I just want to be a source of light in this very dark world. The Introvert’s Escape Maneuver is my way of navigating life. Free-Thinking Fridays are the creative's playground. I post poems, think pieces and prose. Self-Love Sundays are when I post motivational pieces about life and the practical applications of Self-Love.
Roses Reincarnated
A poem by Courtney Peppernell inspired me to rewrite a poem I wrote about love in 2014. It's beautiful to witness my own personal growth and redefining of the word "love". Spoiler Alert: If you are withering, my dear, it is not love.
The Fear of Falling
I've never been afraid of heights but I've always grappled with this intense fear of falling. I don't like feeling out of control or not knowing what awaits me at the bottom.
Being Present
Allow yourself to be present and to be purposeful and to be aware and to experience success and failure with an open heart and an open mind.
Dear Dad (an open letter to my father)
Happy Self-Love Sunday! This Sunday I am sharing an open letter I wrote to my dad in honor of Father's Day.
The Only Words I Have
Happy Free-Thinking Friday everyone! Fridays always meet me with deep gratitude and intense exhaustion, especially when my week was full and busy. What are you feeling today? I hope my experience resonates with you.
The Subtlety of Self-Love
Happy Self-Love Sunday everyone! This journey is your own. Though it is extensive, difficult and even intense at times, it is worth it. I hope you see the subtly in the journey. I hope you experience the victories you deserve.
All Ship Travel is Traumatic
A few weeks ago I was on a cruise-ship when I suddenly felt the urge to write. This poem is the result of that experience.
The Power of Intentionality
Happy Self-Love Sunday!! This Self-Love Sunday we are focusing on intentional decisions to be/do better. Allow your Self-Love Journey to lead you to the very best version of yourself.
Words from the Week
Happy Free-Thinking Friday!! I've been challenging myself to write more often so I spent some time this week doing just that. I hope you enjoy "words from the week"
