About Emily

Come along as I experience life and share the journey of old and new with you!

So glad you’re here – stay awhile

Welcome to my little space on the internet, where I share bits and pieces of my life. I’ve been writing for many years as a coping skill and hope my writings can help you too; there’s a topic for everyone!

I am passionate about speaking up when times are tough since I wasn’t able to when I was younger.

A short version of a very long story (check out Becoming an Orphan to hear more) is by the age of 12; I had lost both of my parents. The environment I was then placed in quickly became more abusive.

My only outlet was my journals- So I wrote and wrote and wrote until I noticed what I was writing in my journals started being used against me. I felt as if my only outlet was taken away from me.

I stopped writing in them and wrote online instead… which was also eventually discovered.

I never wanted to feel that way again and knew something had to change. I hope sharing my life and stories can help someone else know that they are not alone. That THEIR story HAS a purpose!

Here you will find topics from growing up + marriage + travel + day-to-day life to heavier issues such as trauma + abuse + healing from anxiety + depression + breaking the cycle + anything and everything between.

I hope this encourages you not to keep it all in.

YOUR STORY HAS A PURPOSE!

Sincerely, Emily
