This Weekend I Cleaned, Cried | 40 in 30 days Series Week 1

Описание: It's officially begun.

I'm doing 4 videos leading up to my 40th birthday, one video a week. Just me, real life, no scripts, no perfection. Just unpacking 40 years and walking into my next decade free.

This first week covered Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. And y'all... it was a lot.

FRIDAY | The Weight

I sat in the mirror and talked about my dad's death. The family drama that came after. How hard it's been carrying all of this while still showing up as a mom, as a woman, as somebody trying to heal.

I'm unpacking it all. Every layer. Every hurt. Every thing I swept under the rug for years.

SATURDAY | The Cleaning & The Come to God Moment

I cleaned my adult child's room. (If you know, you know. 🙃)

Took my daughter to work. Came home. And then... the power went out in the bathroom.

Just me. In the dark. No distractions. No noise. And I had a come to God moment I didn't see coming.

Sometimes He has to cut the power for you to hear Him. And I heard Him loud and clear.

SUNDAY | The Flexi Rods & The Fashion Nova

Took out my flexi rods (finally feeling a little like myself). And then... I went through my Fashion Nova order.

$461 worth of clothes. But here's the thing I'm not putting anything on. Not yet.

After everything my body has been through the thyroid storm, emergency surgery, Graves' disease diagnosis, the thin hair (don't laugh) I'm just not there yet. And that's okay.

Healing isn't linear. Some days you cry over your dad. Some days you sit in the dark with God. Some days you just show people the clothes and dream about the day you'll feel like putting them on.
