A video- Proverbs 20:18

And. The words- always the words

Wise people seek counsel not because they’re weak, but because they want to make better decisions.

However, unhealthy & maladaptive behavior can influence what we seek (ex. validation, control, success, connection) isn’t random. Many of our pursuits are learned survival strategies or trauma responses we developed to meet unmet needs.

We reach for what once kept us safe.
Therapy helps us identify these external validation PATTERNS,understand where they came from, and DECIDE whether they still serve us. Seeking support is wisdom—and sometimes, it’s the most effective step toward healing & CHANGED behaviors.

🎶 Because I vibed with it so much in my story, I went ahead and made an extended version of my motivational bop for all my videos! 💪🏾🔥

And to the haters—may it get stuck in your head on repeat. 😏 Yeah, I know I can’t sing, but I hope whoever said (or thought) that has it stuck the longest. And when it finally leaves? May somebody send it right back to you. ⏮️🔁

Motivation, but make it catchy. So you can catch ittttt!

Race day recap: rushed, hungry, and my outfit said “girl…no.” 😩 Might be dropping weight, but still got a lil somethin’ somethin’.

Shoutout to the hubs for being back on the race scene—how he pulls off a sub-40 with zero training after 5 years is beyond me. 😏💨

We showed up. It was rough. But we did it.

I created a re-introduction video, for TT, thinking I was sharing who I was becoming…. Turns out I am. I should sit with that for a bit. Find my confidence in that. Here’s the video, how it conveys my heart & its openness to yours! I don’t love the video, but I’m trying & being open in this season.

This one is done. Finish line vibes, no finish line banana. Just mysterious, questionably-cut oranges 🍊 (gloveless vibes). But the medal made it.
Firecracker 4 Miler cracked me.

🎇 No water.
🎇 No vibes.
🎇 No humanity in this world, or the politicians it created.
🎇 I fell.
🎇Which matches the bogus energy ‘Merica is on right now.
🎇I. Fell. On. The. Actual. Ground. And was too tired to even be embarrassed.
📰 The world didn’t end. Life went on.
🏅The medal was cute
🫁I moved my body

🚑Survived 4 miles without enough or proper training, no breakfast, no hydration—just vibes and a questionable amount of stubbornness 💁🏿‍♀️

A win is a win. Now back to the AC + prepping for these holiday overnight 12s. Cheers to movement, marriage miles, and sweating through the apocalypse

Goodbye, June 💛

Thank you for the space to grow,
for the strength to stretch,
and for the miles we shared—physically and emotionally.

This month, my goal for June:
🥅 5K a week.
✅ AND DID IT
1️⃣ Each one solo vibes

YES. I did weekend races by myself.

This month gave me the chance to challenge myself, to move with purpose, and to show up even when it was hard. And while every mile wasn’t easy, every mile mattered.

If you’re reflecting on the month:
👍🏿Be proud of the ways you tried
🙌🏿Be proud if the parts you healed
🧘🏿‍♀️Be proud of the ways you rested.

👏🏿Progress is personal.

As we head into July, may we carry June’s:
🌟 Purpose in our movement
🌟 Grace in our pace
🌟 Joy in our journey

Keep running toward your healing, health, & happiness. Keep choosing YOU. And always, always make room for gratitude along the way.

We don’t chase perfection—we run for peace. It’s progress, never perfection.

— The Running Social Worker 🏃🏾‍♀️🧘🏾‍♀️💛
