There was a time when I apologized for simply existing. For needing rest, changing my mind, and choosing a life that didn’t fit expectations. But I don’t do that anymore. This is a list of all the things I refuse to apologize for in life. From protecting my mental health and energy to embracing growth, change, and becoming someone new. Because living well doesn’t require permission. It requires clarity.

Forty arrived carrying peace where I once felt chaos and clarity where I once had confusion. “40 Prayers for 40” is a love letter to motherhood, womanhood, love, creativity, and growth. A collection of bold blessings and manifestations for who I am, who I’ve been, and who I’m still becoming.
