A Little Bit About Me….

The friend that is there.

The poetic romantic.

The lover of humanity.

She who is accomplishing a lot.

“Little by little, she accomplished a lot” is the mantra of my life. This mantra motivated me through tough moments during my childhood and still supports me today in my adulthood. Growing up, I developed in what most would call a “troubled home”, which led me to navigating with low self esteem and believing very little in myself at a young age. I was bullied, living in poverty, and had an estranged family (whom I love very much). when I grew older, I began looking at the lifestyles I was surrounded by and declared I wanted more for myself. Somewhere deep down, there was a part of me that knew I was worth more than what I was seeing, even if I wasn’t aware on the surface. So, I set goals and reminded myself daily that I was worthy of accomplishing them. I used this mantra throughout high school and college whenever I became frustrated during the process. It became my theme song while recovering from challenging breakups, regaining my sobriety and rebuilding my body after a deep, dark depressive timeline. Now, years into my growth, this mantra still inspires me on a regular basis to keep showing up for myself and I hope it becomes one for others too. We all have dreams we’d like to live, the first step is believing we can and are worthy of it. If you’re having trouble remembering those two things, then allow this to be your reminder that you are, indeed, both of those things. Little by Little, we find ourselves there. May you remember your power, allow yourself to be seen, and share what you came to share with confidence, wholeness, and sincerity. You deserve it.
