Empowered Wellness

09/19/2026

I've been thinking about this for a while… and I finally decided to say it. 🤎

Representation matters.

Sometimes seeing someone who looks like you, understands experiences similar to yours, or simply makes you feel like you belong is what turns a page you follow into a community you actually participate in.

That's what I want Empowered Wellness to become.

Not a community with one face, one body, one background, or one story.

A community where ALL women can find a piece of themselves.

What makes you feel truly seen and connected in a wellness community?

And if you're normally a silent follower, just drop a 🤎. No explanation necessary. I just want to see who's in the room.

🤍💙 I HAVE SOME PRETTY BIG NEWS!💙 🤍

I am incredibly honored to share that Empowered Wellness has been nominated for Best Holistic Healthcare in the 2026 Best of Clarksville! 🥹

Seeing the name Empowered Wellness on that list honestly means more to me than I can put into words.

This business started as a dream; a vision of creating something that empowers people to take control of their wellness, confidence, mindset, and overall quality of life. And bringing that dream to life has required a lot of faith, sacrifice, persistence, late nights, setbacks, starting over, and refusing to give up even when things were hard.

As a small business owner, there are moments when you wonder if people see what you're building or if all of the work you're putting in is making an impact.

❤️This nomination made me feel seen.❤️

To whoever nominated Empowered Wellness: THANK YOU. And to every person who has supported me, shared a post, encouraged me, followed my journey, spoken my business's name in a room I wasn't in, or simply believed in what I'm trying to build, thank you. You have no idea what it means to me.

Now I need my village!!!
🏆 Empowered Wellness is nominated for Best Holistic Healthcare

📍 Best of Clarksville 2026

🗳️ Voting takes place at the Best of Clarksville event on October 1st at Governors Square Mall!

If you'll be attending, I would be incredibly grateful and honored to have your vote for Empowered Wellness.

Winning would be amazing, but even being nominated alongside established businesses in our community is something I'm incredibly proud of.

I fought hard to make this dream a reality, and I'm nowhere near finished!!!

Clarksville, I'll see you October 1st!

Walk through social media for five minutes, and you'll likely be told you're using the wrong supplements, eating the wrong foods, following the wrong workout, or missing the one "secret" that will finally...

There comes a point when you have to remember…

You started this journey alone.

You carried yourself through things nobody even knew were breaking you.

You figured it out when there was no backup plan, no safety net, and nobody coming to save you.

And in a world where social media has made it so easy to curate perfection, I think it’s important to say this:

That’s not us.

We’re not pretending everything is perfect when it isn’t.
We’re not posting a highlight reel and trying to convince the world that nothing ever goes wrong.
Sometimes life gets messy.
Sometimes people disappoint you.
Sometimes the plan falls completely apart.

And sometimes you have to cry, get pi**ed off, regroup, and figure out what the hell you’re going to do next.

That’s real life.

So if the people you thought would be there suddenly aren’t?

Keep going.

You were capable before them.
You’ll be capable after them.

Some chapters will be walked with people.
Some will have to be walked alone.

Either way, you’re still going to get where you’re going.

You’ve got you.

And maybe that was the backup plan all along. 🖤

My latest article is officially LIVE in Brainz Magazine⁠ and whew… this one is personal ❤️

“The Truth About Sacrifice, Survival, and Building Anyway” is for the people who are silently carrying the weight of becoming.

The ones balancing:
✨ burnout and ambition
✨ healing and responsibility
✨ survival and dreams
✨ exhaustion and purpose

We live in a world that celebrates the outcome but rarely talks about the pressure, sacrifices, uncertainty, and emotional weight it takes to build something meaningful behind the scenes.

As a nurse, entrepreneur, graduate student, mother, and woman navigating real life while still refusing to give up on my vision… I wanted to have an honest conversation about what success really looks like before the “highlight reel.”

This article dives into:
▫️ hidden burnout among high achievers
▫️ healing while still building your future
▫️ the pressure of “making it”
▫️ survival seasons before expansion
▫️ why your hard season does NOT mean you’re failing

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, discouraged, behind, or exhausted while trying to create a better life for yourself… this is for you.

I hope this article reminds someone that strength is not always loud. Sometimes strength is simply continuing to show up anyway. 🤍

Happy Sunday Sunshines 🌞.

I have been asked by SO many people: What this is???

This is a sensory/grounding tool (sometimes called a sensory stim or tactile fidget).
It’s designed to give your body physical input when your mind feels overwhelmed.

Why I use it:
When I’m overstimulated, anxious, or overwhelmed, my nervous system is basically on overload.

Instead of spiraling mentally, I redirect that energy into my body by squeezing this.
Why the “pain” helps (this part is actually science-backed 👀)

When you squeeze something like this:
It activates pressure and pain receptors in your skin.

That sends signals to your brain that compete with anxiety signals
Your brain can’t fully focus on both at the same time.

So it helps interrupt the anxious loop!!!

It’s similar to:
*Snapping a rubber band
*Holding ice
*Deep pressure (like weighted blankets)

👉 It brings you back into the present moment.....

What it does for me:
*Grounds me quickly
*Gives me something to focus on physically instead of mentally spiraling
*Helps regulate my emotions in the moment
*Gives me a sense of control when things feel chaotic

How to use it
Super simple:
1. Hold it in your hand
2. Squeeze it firmly (as much pressure as you need)
3. Focus on the sensation
4. Breathe while you do it
You can repeat until your body starts to calm down.
