It’s been two years since I decided to embark on a real journey of happy healthy. I decided to captain a ship and each of you joined me as shipmates, deck hands, and co captains in your own life. I couldn’t be more proud of you and I for giving the dedication and sheer will this journey requires.

My entire reason for starting this blog was hope. I believe without hope you have nothing to hold on to. Everyday we get up and are subconsciously hopeful. Hopeful we get our favorite parking spot at work, hopeful the new barista makes our drink correctly, and hopeful that our crush notices our new hair. If nothing else I wanted to be that place you go to for encouragement, motivation, and of course…hope.

I wanted a way to write more, bring you more content, and open up more about my up bringing, and life’s wins and challenges. If for no other reason than to give you a relatable place to escape. I gave myself a goal of getting 50-100 subscribers monthly. Building a foundation for this to be my career, while thinking of ways to make this more of our escape. After two years, finally…I am here.

In a world of subscriptions, I hope to become one on your list. Hear me out, in order for me to bring you more content, stay in college at the beautiful age of 31, and keep navigating the choppy waters of life, this is our next step. Now, life is clearly about exchanges so let me tell you about this exchange of give and take.

First and foremost, stay subscribed and bring your friends too. I will still post complimentary blogs on our life long journey of happy and healthy. The premium content goes beyond and is more personal, deeper, and a bit more of the ugly side of happy and healthy. Second, it is more personal for you. Becoming apart of my premium email list, you can email me. Ask for advice, give me a blog topic, ask for a psychological perspective, or vent in a safe space telling me what you want to share and what is our little secret. Now, the goal of this is to build our connection, blog using your stories for inspiration, and show you that you are not alone. More people than you know deserve to hear from you, no one wants anything more than to be heard and relatable. You are inspirational. Third, it’s affordable and you can cancel at anytime. Try it for a month, you don’t like it cancel and stay on the side of complimentary. The content quality will never waiver. I promise you won’t hurt my feelings. Plus, there are monthly giveaways…who doesn’t love incentives.

This is a win. I set a goal and reached it. I told myself if people keep tuning in, I will take the leap give them more. More of me, more of an escape, and more hope. Our relationship will thrive in reciprocity. I left my job because I believe in us. In this relationship we’ve built and hopeful that I continue to make your life better. After all, you’ve trusted me for this long and I a prepared to take our relationship to the next level.

This wasn’t an easy choice. It took me two years to believe in myself as much as my subscribers believe in me. If you are chasing your why what is stopping you? For me it was fear. Would I lose my audience? Would they not trust me with their stories or want my advice? All things that made me keep pushing back what I really wanted to do. I am still scared, just not crippled by the fear. If I can give you some advice, create a milestone and make a promise to yourself of what you’ll do once you achieve it. Don’t let your self down, keep your promise. Allow yourself to be scared, just don’t let fear stop you. Let fear be a fleeting emotion.
