I Became a Stronger Person
On 11/10/09 I became a stronger person. 
15 Years ago

There were many times I didn't feel strong. But on this day each year, I take the time to honor my past and what I've learned from it. I bake myself a cake and celebrate with those I love.  

15 Years ago today, I received the phone call telling me I had cancer. In many ways, I was still a baby. We were ready to start a family, but instead, I started chemo.
 
It feels like just yesterday. 
And it feels like a lifetime ago. 

I'm grateful to be living this life. I'm grateful to be supporting others who are going through their own hard times.

This cake was the best tasting yet -- made from scratch cake and frosting-- yum!

I invite you to think of a hard time in your life. Can you think of a few ways this hard time also made you a stronger person? If you feel comfortable sharing, post a comment below or reach out to me via email. I love hearing from you!

About Me

 
I used to think living a balanced life was an unattainable concept. I found myself overwhelmed, always anxious, and envious of others that seemed to be able to juggle it all. I kept searching for what I thought would bring me happiness.

It was a cycle I found myself in, time and time again…that is until I found a system that works. I learned the tools I needed to heal and grow. Now, despite living with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer, I am thriving and growing in all areas of my life.

Best of all, I get to help other women do the same in their lives.  It's your time: let me help you clear the chaos in your life, so that you can find joy, make memories, and notice everyday miracles.
