My Story

Before we even dive in, for those interested, I'm an INFJ - Enneagram 1w2 with an E5 coming in next. I am a firm believer in holding space for others... in being a safe place. I can't say that I've always had a safe place to show up with every part of who I am... most of the time I felt like my heaviness was a burden that only I was meant to carry... and so I struggled in silence.

I felt alone... and I don't want you to feel that way. I don't want anyone in my life to feel like they don't have a safe place to retreat to or to show up vulnerably in. 

My little family and I live along the beaches of Nags Head, North Carolina and there is something so healing about the salt air. 

I find my joy in the moments where I can breathe slowly and soak in every single second... in the moments where I'm able to be intentional and mindful in the chaos that is 'life'....

If I reach the end of my time and know that at least one person felt heard.... and seen... I'll feel fulfilled. If I can somehow find a way to help someone grow into who God has called them to be, or point them to Jesus... my heart will be full.

If I can pour light into someone's darkness. It will all have been worth it.
 

I believe your story matters... and that your pain has a purpose... let's use our story of darkness to be a light for others.
