Sunday night check in :
Winter Solstice 2025

I had a fun weekend. I saw the new SpongeBob movie. Cooked a bit. Cleaned the house. Cried some deep cries. Packed up allll the little things I put together for the holidays to drive down south and see some family.

I’m here now in my teenage bedroom. Ready to celebrate and do more cooking. After everything that happened last year I feel like this is my first Christmas. Just like in October it felt like my first birthday. I’m happy to be here, and I’m happy you’re here too.

Practicing my equanimity and balance even while out of town. Gonna workout tomorrow and see some of my favorite humans. Honey I’m homefried.

Reminding myself to:
🌙 Jump, shake, wiggle and dance
🌙 Keep diving deep in the shadows of my mind
🌙 Love my body all ways, always

Blessed winter solstice. Release. I love you.

Hi Friday baby, I missed you!

So this week was certainly still busy and emotional as the holidays are. But it was crucial that I took time for my self to ground and nap and refuel. Though here I am writing from a sleepless night.

EMDR is serious business. I am intentionally making my conscious and subconscious kissss 💋💋💋. But dang does that can come with some strange nightmares and side effects lol. I didn’t go back to my mind during the trauma, I went into my body. It’s the Wild West in there dog.

When all else fails- keep getting under the sun. Sitting in the grass. Jumping in the water and feeling the breeze. Mother earth will carry us.

Dressing up as the grinch this week was also life changing. It healed something lol. I work part time as a Crossing Guard for my local PD. And I had SO much fun. So many laughs and smiles. I’m not sure who loved it more, the kids or the parents 💚✨Today is my last day of work for two weeks while the kids are out on break. I will be traveling around Florida playing Santa and seeing the people I love so much and who love me too.

This week I met and worked with some beautiful brilliant humans too. From my fragrant tree man new bestie to princess Tianna at the gym, Mr. L with the paint watch, 6, all the ones who stopped for a photo with the grinch, I had coffee with my so pretty superwoman gf from my old job, and I went line dancing with other pretty girls that I love. It was my first time and I think we kinda crushed it. Sooooo…. I did okay y’all. We’re doing ittttt. I love you. xo . 12.19.25

Happy Sunday little bear.

It has been a weird and seriously long week. Strange time between the holidays. Just kinda floating. I’m thinking about my wedding today. My therapist told me that during this emdr process I should keep a journal, so I might start doing it in video form for my self. But for now, I had to add a wedding photo to my diary entry for this week because damn, I love my husband.

Im grieving the death of lies. I am finding pieces of myself that survived and helping them get to know the me who wants to keep living. Anywayssss….

I crafted and thrifted and gifted this week. I worked my tail off. I wrapped and cried and played. I miss you. I miss me. I have a work lunch today- that’s something I haven’t done in a really long time. Wish me luck.

What I’m bringing into next week:

✨Focus back on my Self - not so holidays
✨Prioritizing strength and movement
✨Feeling sexy through more self care

I am not bringing back my:
🧯Hyperfocus to please
🧯 Self Neglect
🧯Food refusal (ugh I’m getting my period)

Okay be back soon. Love you

Yesterday I visited Space Coast Critters, and honestly… it was warm honey for my soul.

I got to pet Highland cows, cuddle bunnies, love on piggies, feel the softest sheep, and even bottle-feed baby goats. 🐐✨I was such a good mama 🥹

After a deeply emotional weekend - and with the last full moon of the year stirring up EVERYTHING - this is just what the doctor ordered.

So after the farm, I went on a long mysterious in the middle of nowhere. Over the river and through the woods I found some glimmers on my way.

Just the breath of the earth and my own together was slow moving medicine.

When everything feels like too much, walking reconnects us to our body, our rhythm, our softness. It literally tells your nervous system: you’re safe enough to move forward.

Between the fuzzy animals and the fresh air, I felt myself settle. Just a bit.

Not perfectly…just enough. Before starting a long week.

Sometimes the medicine is this simple:
✨ Go the heck outside
✨ Touch the earth, get dirty
✨ Cuddle someone or something fuzzy
✨ Walk until your mind and jaw unclenches
✨ Let yourself wander freely

Rebuilding slowly, warmly and without apology is okay.

If you’re local, go visit they’re a small family-run petting zoo doing big-hearted work. Support them, love them, pet their cows for me. 🤍

Tell me…
When life gets heavy, what’s your warm honey?

No ‘performing’ today is my reminder.

I was down in Miami for a business event last year when one of my fave girls snapped that first photo of me.

Today when I look at it I can’t help but remember I was still performing. One month after this I was in the psychward - I wasn’t actually ready to buy my food truck or storefront or whatever the heck I was planning in that big book. It was all just me doing what I do best - performing and pretending.

So today I remind myself of this lesson. Because spoiler alert: all performances come to an end. And I would rather take a bow than be taken in a straight jacket ya feel me?

✨So we slowly take the steps to chip away at the performative (what we think is protective) rock until we find our selves✨

Next week I’m going to open up the awesome new online group I’m building to share the tools and support we all really need.

I love you happy Sunday happy full moon.

Stay tuned little bear.

I re-created The Bossy Pea because I’ve been in a season of rebuilding and re-creating my self…

my routines, my mental and physical health, my relationship with food, with people, with me, all of it.

And somewhere along the way while joining my first intensive outpatient group program, I realized something important:

We need community.
We need compassion.
We need support that is real - not performative or perfect.

I’m not here as an influencer or a salesman.
I am a woman who has lived a lot of lives, learned from then, stretched to the ends of my soul and wants to share the things that are helping me feel grounded, nourished, and connected again. Sometimes. And sometimes, we can just hurt together.

This space is for:
✨ real talk, encouragement, understanding, acceptance
✨ food that supports your life, not controls it
✨ soft, gentle and supportive routines
✨ nervous system care
✨ the comfort of not doing everything alone

If you’re here because you’ve been craving community too, you’re in the right place.

Tell me one thing you’re trying to let go of and have less of in your life right now under this last full moon of the year. 💛
