2024 has been nothing short of a roller coaster—like the kind where you’re screaming, laughing, and regretting all your life choices at the same time. I’ve finally learned just how fast life can change in a year.At the start, I had a job I loved, with incredible coworkers and customers who made every day worth it. Then, out of nowhere—poof—the doors closed.
What followed were months of uncertainty, fighting with unemployment (a real treat), and filling out what felt like hundreds of job applications, only to hear “Thanks, but no thanks” on repeat. It started to feel like I’d accidentally checked the “please crush my soul” box on those forms.It was hard—really hard.
There were days I wanted to hide under a blanket and not come out. Depression crept in, and I had to fight back with everything I had. But I didn’t do it alone. My family, my friends, and my newfound faith became my lifeline. They reminded me that even in the darkest times, there’s a reason to keep going.So, I decided to let Jesus take the wheel (because clearly, I wasn’t doing so great driving). And even though I don’t know where this road leads, I’ve come to trust the process.
Through it all, some amazing things happened. I officially turned into an LLC—boss lady status unlocked!—and started the , a space to share my love for photography with others. I’ve packed a year’s worth of moments into what felt like a single minute, and somehow, I’ve come out stronger. I’ve got a new job, made some amazing new friends, and rediscovered my strength along the way.
To everyone who stood by me this year: thank you. From the bottom of my heart, you helped me survive one of the toughest years of my life, and I’ll never forget it.
So, here’s to 2025! No plans, no resolutions—because let’s be real, life loves to blow those up anyway. I’m just here for the ride, snacks in hand, seeing where the next adventure takes me.
