What’s Up Gorls
I created this page/blog/whatever to share my experiences on this chaotic ride we call life. Does everyone call it chaotic or is it just me? I’m not sure if people will read it or if I’ll even try to share it. But if you’re here, I hope the content makes you laugh or feel less alone (or ideally, both).
My goal is to share love and laughs and heartache and hiccups. And to not think too much while doing it.
Also I know this is called “For the Gorls”, but the boys can read too, if you dare.
Stay tuned for posts about getting divorced at 27, struggling with mental health, moving to 3 new cities - Dallas Denver and Chicago, more on getting divorced because we can’t really just glaze over that one (and the move to Denver had to be preceded by some mental breakdown obviously), navigating a path back to yourself after doing so well at being the person people expect you to be, appreciating the way family and friends tether you to the earth, spirituality, toxic christianity, career aspirations, etc.
I am someone who fortunately or unfortunately HAS to learn things the hard way. Frank Sinatra’s “My Way” hits a little close to home. I’m grateful for the rocky road and I know no part of my life has been a mistake. I believe my life has played out how it’s meant to so far, but to say I have zero regrets isn’t authentic. I absolutely entertain the spiraling thoughts about the better and easier decisions I could have made. But I’m trying to entertain these less and less.
Here’s to stumbling through this life and filling your cracks with gold. And I’m not talking about expensive anal beads. (sorry mom I feel like I couldn’t take that one out)
We’ll close this intro with a quote and a song:
Her entire life led to the moment where she said “this is the life I want” and she never wasted time on a life that was not that.
