Why Do I Blog?

I blog because words have always been both my release and my bridge. Writing helps me process the storms I’ve walked through and the lessons I’m still learning. It gives me space to take experiences – good, bad, and everything in between – and make sense of them.

But I don’t just write for myself. I blog because I know I’m not the only one who has wrestled with change, carried shame, or struggled to let go of what no longer served me. By sharing my story, I hope to remind others that they aren’t alone.

Blogging is also an act of faith for me. It’s a way of turning pain into purpose, showing how God has carried me through valleys I didn’t think I’d survive. My words may not reach everyone, but if even one person feels seen, encouraged, or less alone, then the vulnerability was worth it.

At its core, I blog because stories matter. They connect us, heal us, and sometimes even change us. And if my words can plant even the smallest seed of hope in someone else’s life, then I know I’m walking in the purpose God set before me.
