By birth I am a daughter, through love I am a Wife, through blessings I am a Mommy, and by trade I am a trauma therapist. Like many women I wear many hats but some how many of the roles I’ve taken on, intentionally or not, have led me to work with, mentor, inspire, and now raise girls. I’ve taken this as a sign from the universe that it is a part of my purpose in the grand scheme of things. As a mom there are so many things I want my daughter to know and I don’t ever want to take anything for granted and just assume that she will learn it along the way so until she is older I have decided to blog my thoughts here in the form of open letters. I chose open letters because I know there are girls out there who also need encouragement, mentoring, inspiration, reminding, and ton of other things and if they can get just a fraction of that from what I hope to teach my daughter then I’m happy with that. I hope you enjoy this blog and share it with a girl (young or old) that may need it.
