For a little while now, I’ve been dealing with some unexpected health challenges. No diagnosis yet. No clear answers. Days & nights filled with long visits to the ER, urgent care, and doctors offices. Just symptoms that come out of nowhere, disrupt everything, and make it hard to show up fully — as a parent, as a partner, and especially as a business owner.
Some days I feel okay. Other days, I’m pushing through fatigue, crippling pain and discomfort, and worry while still trying to be “on.” Running a business when your body feels like it’s betraying you is… humbling. And heavy.
I’m sharing this not for pity, but for permission — for anyone else silently navigating unknown health struggles while keeping life moving. You’re not weak. You’re not lazy. You’re navigating the invisible while still showing up.
If you’ve been waiting on an email, a response, or something from me — thank you for your patience. I’m learning to lead with grace for myself, too. More importantly, im navgating past the embarrassment of not being able to deliver in the way im used to.
This season is teaching me to rest without guilt. To ask for help. To trust that my body is speaking, and it deserves to be heard.
If you’re in the thick of it too, I see you. We’re going to figure it out. One step at a time. A special and heartfelt thank you to Jan-michael Hightower who stands in the gap everyday without complaint.
