Welcome to Speaking From The Scars! 

I am so happy you are here.

This blog was born out of my own story. It gives me a way to share a story of struggle, survival, and transformation. Over the years, I’ve learned that silence keeps us stuck in our wounds, while speaking from our scars helps us heal and helps others know they are not alone.

Here, you’ll find real reflections from my life, the people I meet, and the lessons I believe can change how we understand healing, pain, suicide prevention, youth mental health, and recovery.

If you take away one thing, I hope it’s this: there is power in your story, there is strength in your scars, and there is hope.

Thank you for being here. I can’t wait to share this journey with you.
