Hard truth… motherhood will have you feeling like you lost yourself. Being a mom of 9, there were real moments I thought I’d never get my “pink” back. And it’s not about looks. Your “pink” is your joy, your softness, your confidence… you. The version of you that isn’t just surviving everyon

Addressing my come back✨

Baby weight taught me more than the scale ever could. It taught me patience with a body that carried life, love, and late nights of prayer. It taught me that healing isn’t linear — it’s layered, it’s loud, and it’s lonely sometimes. I’ve had moments of looking in the mirror and feeling like a

Sometimes you go so long looking after yourself that you forget how to ask for help or even what help looks like. I do have people in my life who offer, but I don’t take it — not because I want to be sad, but because I don’t feel like it will really make a difference. It feels like a band-aid… t

Postpartum 🩷

Sometimes I wonder if I’m forcing my spark to come back. I’m only 9 months postpartum, but part of me feels like I should already feel like myself again. Truth is, I don’t—and maybe that’s okay. Healing takes time, and so does finding yourself again after becoming a mom. #newmom #postpartum

How I plan to BOUNCE BACK after pregnancy ‼️

hello ◡̈ Yeah I’m definitely not playing a part in “bounce back” culture because bouncing back means something completely different to me. Bouncing back isn’t even “bouncing” it’s a slow paced walk. One where I am focusing on healing, mentally, spiritually and physically — while honoring me in an

“Rekindling a steamy love affair—with the pole.”

I didn’t just survive postpartum… I seduced my way back to life. Every scar, every stretch… became part of the art. I cried. I healed. I climbed. I rose. And now? I don’t just move—I mesmerize. I don’t just dance—I devour. This isn’t a comeback. This is a rebirth…

Bounce back culture myth

Your postpartum journey is not a race back to who you were—it’s a sacred unfolding into who you’re becoming. ✨ The “bounce back” narrative is a lie that steals the joy of this season. Every stretch mark, every soft curve, every slow day of rest is proof of your body’s miracle, not something to e
