This video is almost 21 years old!

If you watched it, you'd probably see an 18-year-old laughing on her birthday.

What I was really good at hiding was the abandonment I felt when pretty much everyone let me know they couldn't come to my party at the last minute. This was a pattern that happened so many times in my life before.

So I expected it.

I even made a funny video out of it.

Moments like these don't just hurt then... they shape the way we learn to move through the world. Even now, my first instinct is often to expect no one to show up for me. Ever.

🫂 That's what trauma does. It teaches us to brace for the pain we've already lived.

But healing from trauma has been teaching me something different...

A big part of who I am is who I am *not* anymore. I'm learning that my past doesn't have to predict my future, and that it's okay to let people prove my trauma wrong.

LISTEN. If you are on a journey of untangling old wounds and learning to believe that healing is possible, I'd love for you to heal alongside me 🤍 PLEASE FOLLOW Embracing Yōu

2019...

Post-PTSD
Post-EMDR
I was feeling amazing mentally, but my body had other plans...

My undiagnosed chronic illnesses couldn't be ignored anymore... symptoms came to a head and then COVID happened. Contracting that blew everything up.

It was only about 3 years ago that I found out about my food allergies + chronic illnesses.

2026...

These last few years have been about piecing together the rest of my puzzle so I can get to a homeostasis in this body of mine!

The best part has been the journey of helping others as I help myself 🫂🫶🏼

It's my purpose

❤️ Anna

Come have dinner with me at Bambinos Urban Pizzeria in downtown Colorado Springs while I share a little health update 🤓

For years I thought my dizziness, visual overwhelm, LOATHING of reading, and absolute exhaustion were simply part of my chronic illnesses. It turns out there was another piece to the puzzle that was missing!

Join me in this "health update" vlog episode 🎙

If you've ever wondered why busy stores, light sensitivity, reading, scrolling, or driving leave you feeling drained, I hope this encourages you to keep asking questions. Sometimes the missing piece isn't blurry vision... it's how your eyes work together with your brain.

🤔 I'd love to know! Have you ever heard of Binocular Vision Dysfunction?

Checking in from my family vacation 👋🏼

I can't really believe it, myself, but I've been able to feel well enough to go down the waterslides with my kiddos! This is my face after an exciting time on the 4-seater Howlin' Tornado waterslide!

A tangled web of chronic illnesses, flares, food allergies, OCD, etc have all been preventing me since about 2019 from really enjoying a plethora of different things that I used to love (even before that).

Today, I am sitting in my cabana celebrating obtaining a new level of wellness after about a decade of compounding issues. I'm tearing up as I type this. Thank you for being here and being a compassionate witness to a time of breakthrough in my personal life.

It means so much 🫶🏼

Don't discount the fact that when you're aware of a pattern, you are able to change it!

𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗦:

⏲️ Before awareness, the pattern runs automatically

🚦After awareness, you have a choice

🤷🏻‍♀️ Not every choice will be different right away

💯 Not every pattern will disappear overnight

The biggest fact is that awareness creates a 𝘱𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦, and that pause is where change begins... right? You don't have to be 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘥 with a pattern to have made any progress.

Let these facts marinate.

ʏᴏᴜ ᴄᴀɴ ʙᴇ ɢʀᴀᴛᴇꜰᴜʟ ꜰᴏʀ ᴡʜᴀᴛ ʏᴏᴜ ʜᴀᴠᴇ ᴀɴᴅ ꜱᴛɪʟʟ ᴅᴇꜱɪʀᴇ ᴍᴏʀᴇ

Many people struggle with guilt when they want change. We tell ourselves: "I should just be grateful" but gratitude + growth are not opposites...

You can appreciate where you are while recognizing that you've outgrown it.

You can love parts of your life while wanting different experiences.

You can be thankful for what you've built while still feeling called toward something more aligned.

Wanting more peace, purpose, connection, or fulfillment doesn't mean you're ungrateful ✨ it simply means you're still growing!

💓 Anna
