Stop WISHING you were different. Become it.

I’m ready to change

You may feel lost right now, but there is hope. And you CAN help yourself

Aren’t you tired of wishing you were different but never actually changing? Do you even believe you can change? You probably think that it’s just the way things are, that you’re too tired, too busy, or held back by others… But here’s the truth: Your trauma and past story do not define you. Your mindset and actions do.

YOU define you.

Are you ready to take the first step?

When you don’t know where to start – start here

You can’t achieve any goal in life unless you get 100% clear and honest about where you are and what you want.

Lack of clarity can delay your journey by years if not decades. Doesn’t that thought scare you? I know it scared me. That’s why I created these exercises for myself, and now I’m sharing them with you.

Girl, send me that! ↦
about the author

Hi, I’m Steph!

5 years ago, I started this blog to document my self-healing journey. Within a year, I had recovered from weed addiction, depression, and chronic pain from rheumatoid arthritis. I changed my thoughts, improved my diet, quit my job, and found new passions, including a creative side I didn’t know I had.

If you are anything like me, you might not realize you can become a completely different person. That’s why I share my personal transformation story here, with no filters. You don’t have to be a victim of your circumstances or endure a life that makes you miserable. You can change!
