Some things don’t need answers.
They just need space.

First Sunday is a monthly pause — a quiet note for reflection, breath, and inner listening. No fixing. No pressure. Just something grounding to return to.

If this feels like something you’d want more of, you can subscribe to the newsletter through the link in bio 🤍

A lot of us know the language of healing now.

Trauma. Attachment. Nervous systems.

But knowing isn’t the same as living it.

Most people I talk to aren’t in crisis.
They’re just tired.
Tired of trying to do healing “right.”
Tired of starting things they can’t keep up with.
Tired of carrying so much without knowing where it belongs.

That’s why healing can’t be one‑size‑fits‑all anymore.

In 2026, we have to rethink how we offer support—
because people need different doors at different moments.

Some people want space to slow down and listen to themselves. Some people want language before they’re ready to speak. Some people are just curious, and that’s enough.

That’s why I offer more than one way in.

Our First Sunday newsletter is a quiet pause—
a place to notice what you’re holding before trying to fix it.

Our “Curious About Therapy” free group sessions are for reflection and connection.

They’re not therapy. They’re a bridge…

There’s no single right way to heal.
Only what meets you where you are.

If you’re curious, both are in my bio.

Some exhaustion doesn’t come from doing too much. It comes from surviving too much.

Racial stress can leave you frozen— body still, eyes open, mind braced. Never fully resting. Never fully safe.

When this kind of stress doesn’t let up, the body adapts. And that adaptation costs energy.

Audre Lorde reminded us:

“Caring for myself is not self‑indulgence, it is self‑preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.”

Care isn’t always gentle or pretty.
Sometimes it’s naming harm.
Sometimes it’s stepping away.
Sometimes it’s preparing yourself to endure.

And sometimes, care is collective.
It lives in reflection, in being witnessed, in the wisdom passed down through our grandmothers’ hands.

If rest doesn’t touch your exhaustion, your body isn’t failing— it’s responding with intelligence.

I catch myself judging outcomes before I’ve built the support to hold them. 🧠🌱

That’s not accountability—that’s old survival energy.

Dreaming big isn’t only about careers or goals.

It can look like wanting steadier love.
Wanting peace in your body.
Wanting ease instead of constant effort.

Wanting more doesn’t make you ungrateful.
It means you’re listening. 🩷

I’m letting January be a transition instead of a performance. 🌱✨

Thinking counts.
Rest counts.
Not knowing yet counts.

If slowing down feels uncomfortable, that doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong—it might mean you’re doing something new.

Emotional regulation isn’t about being “better behaved.”

It’s about what happens in moments no one ever taught you how to navigate.

Like:
▪️Snapping at someone you care about
▪️Sending the text you wish you could take back
▪️Feeling heat in your chest and reacting before you even realize it
▪️Replaying the argument over and over, wondering why you couldn’t pause

These reactions aren’t personal failures.

They’re learned responses from a nervous system doing its best with what it knows.

Emotional regulation is learning how to pause inside those moments—not to suppress your feelings, not to judge yourself—but to choose a response that actually supports who you’re growing into.

Your anger makes sense.

Your reactions have context.

And with practice, you can respond differently.

This is the work—and it’s learnable. ♥️✨

I used to think all momentum meant pressure.

I’m learning that excitement and urgency can feel similar, but they don’t come from the same place.

Urgency kept me safe for a long time.
Excitement helps me feel alive.

I’m practicing noticing the difference instead of assuming I need to push. ✨🌱

Integrity is the promise I make—and keep—to myself: loving myself matters most.

Pushing through always costs me something.
Pausing helps me stay aligned instead of running on empty.

At FreeThinkers, presence is not passive. It’s showing up, staying engaged, and doing the work with care, intention, and compassion. 🩷🌱

It’s the choice to pause, to listen, and to just breathe, even when the work is demanding.

This year, that presence looked like real time, real people, and real commitment:

📊 2,514 therapy sessions
✅ 92% show rate
👥 121 clients served
⏱️ 42,065 minutes of care

It also looked like a collective effort—licensed therapists, client experience coordinators, clinical partners, wellness partners, and teams choosing to invest in well‑being beyond the therapy room through Heal and Lead sessions and ongoing support.

These numbers matter because they represent consistency, trust, and people returning again and again to do the work.

We’re grateful to be in this with you.♥️

As this year comes to a close, before the urge to fix yourself or judge what didn’t happen, pause. ⏸️

Nothing about you is wrong. Your patterns and reactions made sense in the context of your life.

Start with awareness. Notice without rushing to change. Get curious instead of critical.

When things feel safer, different choices become possible. And that happens slowly—at your pace.

In the coming year, I’ll be sharing more space for you to reflect and tell me what’s getting in the way of your peace.

More prompts. More room to be honest.

Stay tuned—and in the meantime, let me know how it’s going for you.

Awareness first. Then choice.🖤

Nothing about this season asks you to do more.

Read that again.

For the ones who are tired of holding it all together—
you are the gift.

Not the productivity.
Not the perfection.
Not the version of you that keeps pushing.

YOU.🖤

Every time you bet on yourself.
Every time you try again.
Every breath you take instead of pushing through.
Every boundary you honor.
Every moment you meet yourself with compassion.

If you take nothing else with you into this season, take this:
You don’t have to earn rest.
You already belong.

All at once — the news, the noise, the deadlines, the bills, the group chats, the expectations, the algorithms, the politics, the emails, the constant worry, the body that won’t rest, the world that won’t pause. 🧠⚖️

No wonder anxiety feels like the only one keeping up.

Sometimes it’s a mind always planning ahead. Sometimes it’s a heart racing for no clear reason.
Sometimes it’s a body that can’t rest, or a feeling of being overwhelmed by everything at once.

However it shows up, anxiety is often a way your system learned to keep you safe.

In DBT, we talk about emotions fitting the facts.

Anger fits the facts when something unfair or unjust is happening. Fear fits the facts when there’s real danger.

And anxiety fits the facts when there’s uncertainty — when the world feels unpredictable and your body is trying to prepare for what’s next.

Your anxiety isn’t wrong; it’s data. It’s your system saying, “Something matters here.”

But not every alarm means you’re in danger. Sometimes it just means your body needs reassurance, not rescue. 🌿

Maybe now, your body is asking for something new:
A pause.
A breath.
A moment of trust that you can be here, even if just for now. ⏳

It’s harder to know what’s real — and what’s not. 🤔

With AI making everything look and sound so convincing, and misinformation spreading faster than truth, it’s easy to feel uncertain about what to believe — especially when it comes to policies, education, and the systems shaping our future.

As a clinician committed to service, I want to share what I’m noticing — and invite you to keep questioning what you see, even when it feels familiar.

Because what’s happening right now with this proposed shift isn’t just about education or degrees — it’s about access, equity, and how we prepare people for lives of service and care. ⚖️

Innovative education models like The Academy for Innovation in Medicine @aim_georgia remind us that there are new ways forward — where learning, purpose, and livelihood can align without the weight of debt or flawed systems.

So as we navigate all this noise, I want you to think about your own world:

💬 In your community, who has been able to finish college, graduate school, or a terminal degree without the support of financial aid? Not just for classes but to LIVE while pursuing their degree.

🤔 What does that mean for who gets to serve, to lead, and to care for others?

📌 And what might change if access — real, equitable access — became the standard, not the exception?

Keep questioning. Keep thinking. Keep building something better.

You’ve trusted me with the real stuff — the parts that don’t always make it to the group chat or the timeline.

That’s something I don’t take lightly.

Every session, every conversation, every moment of honesty — it’s all helped build this space we share. A space grounded in real stories, real healing, and real connection.

This isn’t surface-level healing — it’s growth you can feel.

And I’m honored to witness your evolution. 🩷

Heaviness can be emotional residue — the accumulation of unspoken expectations, grief, and fatigue.

When the world speeds up, your body might slow down to protect you.
That’s not laziness; that’s physiology.

Our culture pathologizes sadness, especially during the holidays.

But grief is a healthy, adaptive response to loss.
When you allow it space, you’re actually supporting your nervous system’s need to process and reorganize.

That’s what healing looks like in real time.

Holidays have a way of amplifying absence.
We don’t move on from loss; we move with it.
Make space for the memory, the silence, the love that remains.

That act of remembrance is also an act of regulation — it keeps the story integrated instead of suppressed.

That act of remembrance is also an act of regulation — it keeps the story integrated instead of suppressed.

Boundaries aren’t barriers; they’re containment.

They keep connection sustainable.

Practice one small act of self‑protection this week — it’s a clinical intervention disguised as self‑care.

Let’s Get Curious: Which boundary feels hardest to hold right now?

♥️What conversation have you been avoiding — and what might change if you approached it with curiosity instead of fear?

♥️What truth in your life has been waiting for your voice to catch up?

♥️If silence feels safer, what part of you is it protecting — and what part is longing to be seen

♥️We all have that one conversation sitting heavy in the background. What would it take to make space for it today?

♥️Avoidance feels protective, but it often costs us connection. What would it look like to stay present through discomfort?

Sometimes I catch myself smiling when what I really mean is “please see me.”

It’s tender work to let the truth show through.

Maybe real safety starts there.

Where in your life could honesty feel like relief instead of risk?

As a therapist who specializes in trauma, grief and loss, I know this won’t land for everyone — and that’s okay.
It’s not meant to.

This is for the ones who’ve been strong for too long.
For the ones who learned to survive by staying busy, capable, and “fine.”
For the ones carrying grief and loss — not just for people, but for possibilities.
The loss of what you hoped for.
The loss of what you should’ve had.
The loss of what you never got.

We don’t talk enough about that kind of grief — the invisible kind that hides behind independence.
But it’s real. And it deserves tending.

We’re not glorifying struggle anymore.
We’re rewriting what strength looks like.
We’re choosing softness as a strategy.
We’re remembering that rest is resistance.

If this lands for you, it’s because you’re ready to see your strength differently.

You’re ready to believe that you don’t have to earn ease. ♥️

Maybe healing is remembering softness after years of armor.

Each time we meet ourselves with care, we rewrite what strength means.

When you’ve been hurt, your body remembers.
It builds walls in the name of safety.

Healing begins when the part of you that’s scared finally feels seen by the part of you that still believes in love.

Love doesn’t rush your protection — it listens until it feels safe to open again.

Real closeness is a mirror — it shows you your edges, your fears, your tenderness.
What you see there isn’t failure; it’s feedback.

Love reconnects you to the parts of yourself that still flinch, still hope, still want to trust.

That’s not weakness — that’s the work of becoming.

Love will ask you to grow in the places you’ve learned to protect.

It’s not about getting it right — it’s about staying curious when it gets messy.

Sometimes love just asks you to breathe, notice, and begin again.

You don’t have to have it all figured out — just keep returning to yourself, and then to the ones you love. 💛

Sometimes love feels hard because I don’t know what to do with it when it’s actually “safe.”

That reflection from my workshop has stayed with me — because it’s true for so many of us.

We’ve learned how to stay, but not always how to communicate what feels safe.

We know how to sacrifice, but we haven’t learned the patience to sit in the hard — together.

Sometimes we confuse silence with peace, and we avoid what might actually heal us.

That’s the kind of space we hold in For Sunday — a moment each month to slow down, reflect, and practice letting love in, even when it feels new.

Not perfect love. Just honest love.

So if you’re ready to lean into love, life, and relationships a little deeper — join me every First Sunday. 💛

Every day begins with one intention: to meet my clients where they are, and walk with them toward what’s possible.

As the year winds down, I’m thinking of my clients with gratitude — for the courage you bring, and the connection that makes this work possible.

For every conversation, every moment of truth, every bit of joy — you’ve given me the chance to do what I love.

I don’t take that lightly. You matter. The trust, the growth, the space we’ve built — all of it is sacred.

Here’s to continued growth, deeper healing, and the magic of doing it together.

The best teams don’t compete for attention — they share it.

When we lift others up, everyone grows.

Keep morale high, celebrate the wins, and make it better together.

And if sharing the spotlight or celebrating others feels hard — pause and ask yourself why.

Where’s the resistance coming from? That’s where the real growth begins.
