There are moments throughout our lives that define us all.

Growing up in a home with what I assumed was a normal family with normal problems, I learned very quickly how to suppress my feelings and not be a burden to others. I was too young to know then that I was setting the table for the enemy to have a seat in my mind. That set the path for moment after moment in my early years to invite in the enemy.

Throughout my life, it has felt like one step forward and two steps back. For decades, many triumphs, even more failures, losses, and grief plagued my life.

I couldn’t tell then what I was facing was rooted in my mind and upbringing. I knew I loved my family, I was passionate about what I felt God had called me to, and no matter how far I ran, I couldn’t outrun my crippling thoughts.

Through over a decade of struggle, therapy, reflection, and learning to grieve, I believe my story will resonate with others like me. I want others to know that although their story is unique, they are not alone in this battle. They, like me, can overcome. Here, I’ll share my story of growing upward.
