Progress Over Perfection, Trust Over Fear, and Finding Balance

As May comes to a close, I reflect on two lessons that kept returning: don’t wait for perfection, and don’t be afraid to tell your story.

What Mayci Neeley’s Book Reminded Me About Humanity, Womanhood, Motherhood, Courage, and Truth — and What Women Have in Common, Wherever They Come From

I finally finished Mayci Neeley’s book — one I had preordered months before it even came out. What began as a tough read, filled with pain and uncomfortable truths, slowly unfolded into something deeply meaningful.
