should boil myself down to a 20-30 word blurb that encapsulates everything about me as a writer and a person.

should give you, dear reader, a succinct summary of what you can expect here.

I am learning shoulds are overrated, and actually a bit suffocating.

I am choosing hope instead.

I hope to share authentically about my own experience being late-diagnosed with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and how it effects my faith, work, relationships, and commitment to grace-filled growth.

I hope you feel seen and understood.

I hope to use writing as a medium for growing community.

I hope you feel connected, valued, and safe to share your own stories and experiences.

I hope to build consistency in my writing (one check in/encouragement post per week and 2-3 longer personal essays per month) while leaving room for spontaneity.

I hope you know what to expect and I hope to surprise you every once in a while.
