I’ve been sitting here trying to process how much love I’ve felt this past week… and it’s honestly overwhelming in the best way.

When I made my post, I talked about how much community has shaped my life — all the different places, people, and seasons. I knew it mattered… but I didn’t realize just how much until now.

The way everyone has shown up for me, Joel and the boys? It’s unreal.

From my family EVERYWHERE, my hometown classmates, The City, East Bay, Alameda, Sacramento… my Costco days (all three stores 🫶🏽), SF State, credential program… every chapter of my life is reaching out and pouring into me right now ♥️

I feel it. And I’m so, so grateful.

Like truly… thank you. This kind of love is something I’ll never take for granted 🫶🏽

Here’s the story… told by me a month or so ago before I lost all my hair but still not ready to hit “post”.

More to come 😘🫶🏽

Also, thank you all for the unbelievable amount of love and support over the last week. It means the world to me. Just know I feel it deep ♥️

This isn’t an easy post to write, but it feels like it’s time to share.

Last October, I was diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer.

Even typing those words still feels surreal. Life very quickly becomes divided into before and after the call. Since then, there have been a lot of chemo appointments, a lot of unknowns, and a lot of moments I never thought I’d have to walk through.

I’ve sat in chemo chairs for hours. I’ve learned more about my body than I ever expected to. I’ve watched my hair fall out—which felt like such a small thing until it wasn’t. Until it was part of how I recognized myself.

I turned forty last week. Not exactly how I pictured stepping into a new decade—but in a lot of ways, I’ve never felt more sure of who I am.

I’m almost halfway through chemo, and about a third of the way through the overall treatment process. And I’m doing really well, all things considered. My mindset is positive. My body is responding as well as it possibly can. I’m taking it one step, one appointment, one day at a time.

I also found out I carry the BRCA1 gene. There’s a lot to process with that, but more than anything, it’s given me clarity and direction for what comes next.

I’m sharing this now not for sympathy, but in hopes that it encourages someone else to trust their body. Schedule the mammogram. Check yourself regularly. Don’t put it off. Early detection matters more than you think.

This experience has stripped away a lot—but it has also shown me how strong I really am. How community means the world. And how we’ve built that community everywhere we’ve gone.

I’m still here.
Still a mom. Still creating. Still dreaming. Still becoming.

One step at a time. 🤍 Come on this journey with me, you’re all invited.

As this year comes to a close, I just want to pause and say thank you.

Thank you for being here, for supporting my work, for trusting me, and for being part of this community I hold so close to my heart.

This year wasn’t easy. It stretched me, humbled me, and asked me to grow in ways I didn’t expect. But it also reminded me how powerful connection is—and how much beauty exists even in the hard seasons.

I truly believe 2026 is going to be transformational ✨
(And yes… the universe has been whispering that Aquarius energy is especially powerful in ’26 👀♒️ — growth, alignment, creativity, and big soul-level shifts.)

As we move through the holidays and into a new year, my wish for you is this:
✨ peace in your nervous system
✨ clarity in your heart
✨ space to rest
✨ courage to dream bigger than ever before

Thank you for being part of my journey. I’m so grateful you’re here, and I cannot wait to step into what’s next—together.

Wishing you and your loved ones a beautiful holiday season and a new year filled with light 🤍
