This is Where it Begins

This isn’t a “I made it” story. It’s not a victory lap or a grand announcement.
This is a beginning – messy, imperfect, and full of possibility.

Because here’s the truth: no matter how far I’ve come, life keeps evolving, and so do I.

The weight of starting over

Starting over is scary. It means facing uncertainty, doubt, and sometimes loneliness.
It means shedding old versions of yourself – even the ones that felt safe – and stepping into the unknown.

Why beginning matters

Beginnings are powerful. They remind us that we’re not stuck, that growth is always possible.
They give us permission to be imperfect and to try again. To choose hope when it feels easier to give up.

This moment is mine

Right now, this moment, is where I reclaim my story.
Not as a finished product, but as a work in progress – a beautiful, chaotic, unfolding journey.

AN INVITATION

If you’re reading this, maybe you’re beginning too. Maybe you’re ready to let go of the past, shake off the weight of expectations, and take your first steps toward something new.

If that’s you, welcome. You’re not alone.

Here’s to messy beginnings,
XOXO, Lucy
