I originally started this blog when I moved to South Korea at 24 because my friends wanted to be able to keep up with my travels. That one year in Korea turned into over seven years, and what started as an academic/cultural adventure became a deeply spiritual one––full of beauty, grace, and joy as well as trauma, disillusionment, and dark nights of the soul.
Since returning to the States in 2019, I have been busy getting a seminary degree, exploring new friendships, practices, and hobbies, and making space for my long, hard journey of healing and growth.
This blog is a space where I honestly process and share from the middle of the journey. I am incomplete and imperfect, yet brave, resilient, and enough. I hope what I share encourages you in your own journey. We don’t have to navigate these in-between spaces alone.
This is a space where we can journey together. Not rushed. Not forced. But leaning into curiosity, compassion, and hope.
