Boy OH boy have I been waiting for this sale! Last year was my first year shopping the Sephora Holiday Sale and I quickly realized how important it was to be ROUGE status. By the time INSIDER shopping dates came around last year I had missed out on so many of my favorite products and… Read more

💕 Health Update
It’s been a rough stretch lately. I was admitted last week after days of migraines, a bad cold that turned into pneumonia, and intense abdominal pain.
My IR doc cleaned out my old line tract and after checking out my CT, found stones in my colon — likely the cause of all the pain I’ve been having lately. Most days have been a 10/10, needing extra pain control and IV meds.
After waiting all week for my MRCP, it thankfully showed no bile duct stones 🙏 but Saturday was scary — I spiked a high fever and nearly landed in ICU when my blood pressure dropped. Thankfully, fluids, antibiotics, and breathing treatments helped stabilize things.
The plan now is for a colonoscopy this week to hopefully remove the stones once the pneumonia clears. Taking it one step at a time and so grateful for all the prayers, messages, and love. 💗

Not all challenges are visible. 💙
Many living with TPN or chronic illness face battles that can’t be seen — but that doesn’t make them any less real.
Sharing this to close out Invisible Disabilities Awareness Week, as a reminder that what’s unseen still matters.

You don’t always see the battles people carry quietly.
For me, it’s IV meds, hydration, and TPN — the supplies and routines that keep me alive and stable every single day.
Sharing this glimpse for Invisible Disabilities Awareness Week, because what’s unseen still matters. 💙

Sundays are for slowing down, reflecting, and getting cozy 💭✨
It’s been a busy, but meaningful week sharing about HPN Awareness, and I’m ending it right here — comfy, grounded, and grateful.
Wearing my new @alo sweatshirt (so soft!) and feeling ready for a quiet day before diving into new projects ahead 🤍

💙 Wrapping up HPN Awareness Week with one final message that means so much to me:
Chronic illness and thriving can co-exist.
Living with HPN hasn’t been easy, but it’s also taught me strength, resilience, and gratitude I never knew possible.
Awareness isn’t just about the medical side — it’s about showing that life with chronic illness can still be beautifully blended with purpose, joy, and hope. 💚
Thank you to everyone who shared, learned, and supported awareness this week.
Your engagement truly helps others feel seen and less alone.

💚 As HPN Awareness Week comes to a close, I wanted to share what life on IV nutrition really looks like — beyond the awareness posts and hashtags.
It’s not always easy, but it’s real, and it’s mine.
HPN isn’t the end of the story… it’s what gives us the chance to keep writing it. 💚

💧 Real life on HPN isn’t always glamorous — sometimes it’s hydration days, appointments, and making it all work in between.
HPN has taught me more about resilience than I ever imagined — how to adapt, slow down, and find gratitude in small moments like this. 💚
Whether it’s TPN, hydration, or rest, every part of this journey matters.
