To begin, I have a coffee addiction. You'll usually find me with one in my hand at all times, whether it's iced, frozen, or humid. The perfect coffee will have to be a honey lavender latte (because, as you might have guessed, I'm a sucker for anything that smells or tastes like lavender). My affection for all of the grass puppies, or cows, is something that everybody and their mothers know about me. I'm one of those people who will always point them out as we pass by on the highway. They're just so darn sweet and affectionate. I'm hoping Kyle would one day let me get one or five of my own.
I've been dealing with Endometriosis since I was fifteen years old. Endometriosis is a loud but invisible illness in women that has yet to be fully understood, and everyone that has or has had Endo will tell you how difficult it is to live with. Many days of missing school/work/hang outs because of the pain of it. I couldn't live a normal life. After several treatments, it returned time and time again. So I taught myself how to deal with it, how to push through the pain while still pursuing my dreams.
That is, before I met a cardiovascular doctor working on a website project back in 2019 when I was twenty-two and discovered I had a condition called May Thurner Syndrome, or MTS. A cardiovascular disease where the iliac veins are compressed by the iliac arteries. My right vein was nearly 90% compressed, meaning if undetected could have caused more serious issues. After having Angioplasty on both sides of my abdomen, I had two long stents placed helping the compression. I was one of the youngest my doctor had ever seen with MTS and how severe the compression was.
Although, I still struggle day to day with symptoms of both endo and MTS I'm not letting my diagnosis stop me from living my dream of owning my story and using it to run my online business. Now I’m helping women by sharing my story to those who may be similar so that they can also live the life they want!
Kyle, my handsome and caring boyfriend, is another wonderful part of my life and also my very own personal photographer! You'll see him on my social media from time to time. He is the person who is always pushing me to become a better person and believes in me that my business will go far because of my passion for it. I’m one lucky girl to have him in my corner and even luckier I get to be a bonus role model to his daughter.
