I’ve started and stopped writing this more times than I can count, not because I don’t know what to say, but because writing it makes everything feel real
If you know me, you know I didn’t get here the easy way. I paid my own way through school and spent much of my life putting myself last. Choosing myself never came naturally
Opening The Facial Refinery changed that for me. It showed me I was capable of more than I ever believed
Which why this is so hard to say…..
I’ve made the decision to step away from The Facial Refinery
This has been one of the hardest decisions, but after a lot of thought, I know it’s the right one for our family. My husband was recently offered an incredible promotion in Kansas City, and saying yes to this next chapter means walking away from something that has meant so much to me
My husband has stood beside me through every risk, long day, and dream I’ve chased. Now it’s my turn to stand beside him the way he always has for me
And Rachel… there truly are not enough words. We built this together with faith, a vision, and a lot of sleepless nights. Knowing she’ll continue what we created brings me so much peace
To my patients… this is the hardest part
Many of you became so much more than patients. You became friends, and trusting me the way you did is something I will never take for granted
This became so much more than a job, and I’m going to miss you all more than I can put into words
You will always have a home at The Facial Refinery, and I trust this team completely. Continuing to support them moving forward would mean so much to me
To everyone who trusted me, supported me, referred someone to me, or simply followed along through this chapter of my life… thank you. You have meant more to me than you probably realize
My last day seeing patients at The Facial Refinery will be August 28.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being part of one of the most meaningful chapters of my life. 🤍
“My heart is overwhelmed, but You never fail to guide me.”
— Psalm 61:2
