April is Autism Acceptance Month, and for my family and I, this time is deeply personal. Autism awareness and acceptance is not just something we recognize. It's something we live every single day. My daughter is on the autism spectrum, and this journey has shaped our lives in ways that continue to grow, stretch, and bless us.

Every March, Women’s History Month reminds us to pause and recognize the incredible contributions women have made to society. From leaders and activists to teachers, mothers, caregivers, and everyday women who quietly change the world around them. Women have always been a powerful force of strength. For centuries, women have broken barriers, nurtured communities, inspired change, and created opportunities for future generations. Women’s History Month isn’t just about looking

Women’s History Month is not just a celebration of the past; it’s a call to recognize how far we’ve come and how much further we can go.   It’s a time to reflect on the women who paved the way, the women who inspire me, and the responsibility I carry to honor that legacy in my own life.

As January 2026 begins, I feel a quiet invitation from The Most High to slow down and tend to my heart and mind with intention. This new year isn’t asking me to rush forward. It's asking me to rest, to trust, and to heal. For me, Mental Wellness Month is a time to not only acknowledge mental health, but to actively nurture it through faith, mindfulness, and daily care.

Welcome to a new month everyone! It's October. I can feel the seasonall shift in the atmosphere. October is known for many types of awareness including breast cancer, national bullying prevention, national domestic violence month, LGBTQ+ history month, ADHD awarness month, and world mental health day (October 10). For this week's blog, I have chosen to focus on mental health and the topic of choice is creating cozy spaces for better mental health.

If you’re living with PCOS, please understand that you are not broken and you are not alone. Healing may take time and it may look different for each of us, but it is possible. Hope grows every time we choose to nourish ourselves, rest when we need it, speak kindly to our bodies, and share our stories.

If you’re navigating PCOS, I want you to know you don’t have to overhaul everything overnight. Start small. Add one new nourishing habit at a time. Celebrate the wins such as choosing fruit over a pastry, or cooking a meal that makes you feel steady instead of sluggish. PCOS may be part of our lives, but it doesn’t have to define the way we live. Every time I choose foods that make me feel better, I’m choosing myself. And that, more than anything, is empowering.

PCOS is more than irregular periods. It’s a hormonal imbalance involving elevated androgens (like testosterone), often insulin resistance, sometimes many small ovarian follicles (often called “cysts”) that don’t mature properly. The hormonal imbalance affects so many levels of my life. It affects me physically, emotionally and mentally.

As some of you may or may not know, September is PCOS awareness month. It is a topic that needs more light shed upon it as it’s not often talked about as much. I personally suffer (and yes, suffering is the appropriate word) from PCOS and I would like to share just a bit of my personal experience with it.
