Just bought my kiddo a toy because it has the same name as the sister I wasn't allowed to meet until we reconnected at 30+ years old
Now me and kiddo pretend the two sisters are hanging out at the beach riding horses with a magical pink cat
The power of play to heal old wounds, yo.

💫 Childhood Trauma
Close your eyes, place a hand on your heart, and imagine yourself at a younger age sitting across from you. Ask: "What do you need?" Listen deeply The answers may surprise you.
This simple practice begins building internal trust.

A Mother’s Day reminder:
Mothering isn’t gendered—it’s a rhythm of care. Many of us were failed or shaped by many mothers. Some of us are learning to be our own.
Swaddle your inner Little One in tenderness today. 💐
