If you asked anyone who knew my younger self what they thought I would be when I grew up, they would all say the same thing: a writer. Writing has always been an outlet for me. Struggling with anxiety my entire life, I often found and still find myself spiraling in my own mind. I overthink almost every situation.
When it was time to decide a major in college I chose nursing. I knew if I was going to spend money on a degree I wanted something that guaranteed me a well paying job no matter what. I left writing to the side and became a registered nurse.
A lot can happen in 7 years. Since graduating college I’ve experienced a lot of grief and loss. I’ve also became a wife, a mom, and a great leader. With all of these elements weighing heavy on my mind I decided to pick up writing again.
WeHeardHerSay is me reclaiming my love for writing. It’s me releasing my stressors in word form. It’s something that is mine in a life where I dedicate myself to others.
If you are a mom, have ever experienced loss, have ever struggled with relationships, have struggled with mental health… my words may be relatable to you.
