Rain IV Therapy

I think this is the part nobody prepares you for.
When the thing you carried for years finally gets into other people’s hands…and they GET IT.🥹

Yeah. I’m a little beside myself right now.☺️
Self-Love Vital Signs is becoming real, real.

Today is one of those quiet milestones that probably won’t mean much to anyone else, but it means everything to me.

Today, August 6, my manuscript officially entered its final grammatical edit.

It’s surreal.

There have been moments I questioned myself, changed direction, felt stretched, and wondered if I’d ever make it to this stage. But one thing has remained constant:
My confidence has never been in me. It’s been in God and what He’s called me to steward.

This isn’t just another step toward publishing a book.
It’s another reminder that purpose doesn’t require perfect confidence—just consistent obedience.

Here’s to one step closer. ☕️
Self-Love Vital Signs is coming.

Life lately🏝️👙👗🩴👠🧳🌷

It will never be all work no play over here.
But stay tuned.

Looking at these drafts and realizing…
the process was never pointless.

Every version. Every edit. Every moment I questioned if I was really going to finish this.
It was all part of it.

This manuscript has stretched me, healed me, humbled me, and reminded me that purpose does not always move fast, but it does move.

Everything is working out exactly like it’s supposed to.

Have you checked your Self-Love Vital Signs today?

I’m learning that wellness isn’t always this perfectly balanced, peaceful, green-smoothie-looking journey.

Some days it’s giving:
“I don’t know how I’m about to do this, but I’m doing it.”
And honestly? That still counts.

Showing up when your mind is tired, your body is dragging, or your spirit feels a little shaky is a real form of self-love.

So no, you don’t have to have the whole plan today.
Just keep going.
One honest step at a time.

Seventeen years ago today, on June 25, 2009, I walked out of the testing center as a brand-new Registered Nurse. It’s also a date the world remembers for another reason (M.J. passed😢), but for me, it’s the day one of my ‘callings’ officially became my career.
Seventeen years later, I’m humbled by where this journey has taken me.

I’ve cared for some of the sickest patients on a Renal/Metabolic unit, in the ER, as a Travel Nurse, Agency Nurse, as a Long-Term Care Nurse
Practitioner, Instructor, National On-Call Provider, and now as an Endocrinology Nurse Practitioner. I’ve earned licensure in nine states, built my own healthcare business, and continue expanding into functional and holistic care because I believe healing should treat the whole person, not just the diagnosis.

Every role has taught me something. Every patient has changed me.
Nursing has stretched me, challenged me, humbled me, and shaped the person I am today. It has shown me that expertise isn’t a destination—it’s a lifelong commitment to learning, growing, and showing up for people when they need you most.

As the creator of ‘Self Love Vital Signs’, I’ve learned one of the greatest lessons of all: you cannot pour from an empty cup. Caring for others starts with caring for yourself.

To every patient who trusted me, every colleague who taught me, every mentor who challenged me, and every family who allowed me to be part of their story...thank you.

Here’s to 17 years of purpose, and to whatever God has planned for the chapters still to come. ❤️
