Hey Gardeners! I hope you guys have been doing well. I’ve been BUSY. Between work and life, it has indeed been a fantastic ride thus far. When I go for a ride, I always have to bring you a little something back. So! Here it goes. 😉 “Forgiveness is not for you–it’s for the other…
“Strong Back—Soft Front” 💜
HELLO! It’s been three months since my last post, and I’ve got to tell you the minute you think your healing is complete is when your next mission starts. Let’s dive in! “All too often, our so-called strength comes from fear, not love; instead of having a strong back, many of us have a defended…
On Location! 📍💕🌻
Hey guys! As always, I’m back! A couple of days ago, while getting ready for work, I decided to listen to a podcast. Man, it was right on time! Dr. Brenè Brown is one of my favorite authors, and her research on shame, courage, and other emotions has truly been inspiring to say the least….
The Cure 🩻👩🏽🔬🧪
Hey Gardeners! I hope you guys are having a wonderful weekend and enjoying this weather. I LOVE fall and winter. The temperature, the colors, the fashion—it’s just so much fun.

Happy Birthday: One Year of Garden of Growth 🥳🎊💕🌻
One whole year! Proud is an understatement. When I decided to start blogging, I had no idea the direction it would take, and I am beyond pleased about where we are today. In honor of my baby turning one, I’ve decided to pay homage to a few of my favorite posts and share some wishes…
Factory Reset 🔄
Have you ever reset a phone? I did this by accident once, and I told myself never again!😂 But, hitting reset on life isn’t possible—or is it? When my Granny passed, she had her funeral planned out. It was funny because she gave various people different program copies. She was funny like that. She always…
