I just finished publishing my very first book and it’s different than all my other books that will also be published soon.

Most of my stories are inspired by lessons I want to teach.

But this one was inspired by a question I couldn’t answer myself.

After losing my mom to cancer, I kept asking:

How will I know she’s still with me?

So I wrote a story.

Not because I had all the answers…

but because I was trying to find them.

The Pieces You Left With Me is the most personal book I’ve ever written.

It’s for anyone who has ever lost someone they love.

For the child grieving a parent or grandparent.

For the adult who still misses someone years later.

For the family searching for the words to talk about loss.

I won’t give away the ending…

but I will tell you this:

I cried while writing it.

I cried while illustrating it.

The friends I’ve shared it with also cried while reading it and told me how beautiful and powerful it is.

A friend sent me this message after reading it:

“What a beautiful tribute to your mom. This is so honoring and so touching and so beautiful, and it will help so many people that have lost their moms, especially little kids.”

This book is for anyone who needs hope.

✨ The Pieces You Left With Me will be available in just 72 hours in:

📚 Paperback
📖 Hardcover
📱 Kindle eBook

I also ordered 10 copies to start, and I’d love to personally sign them for the first 10 people who want one.

If this story speaks to you—or if you know someone who needs it—send me a message.

I would be honored to share this story with you. ❤️🌈 LossAndLove MotherDaughter CancerLoss HealingThroughStories BooksThatHeal AuthorLife IndieAuthor NewAuthor TaylorBrock ChildrensBooks Bereavement GriefAndHealing Bookstagram MomsWhoWrite StoriesMatter

My Grand Toyota Highlander XLE was amazing already… but adding the right organizers made it SO much more functional. 🙌

From the center console to the trunk, I finally have a place for everything, and it’s making everyday life so much easier.

Sharing all of my favorite organizers and the products I actually use! Which one is your favorite? 👇✨

Saw this today and thought it was a good reminder.

The people who want you in their lives will make time for you. The people who care will reach out. Relationships shouldn’t feel like a one-person job.

Just a little food for thought. 🤍

POV: You join your friends for leg day and suddenly realize you’re the weak link. 😂

I thought I was strong… then I trained with them.

By the end, I was questioning every life decision, every rep, and possibly my entire fitness journey. 💀

Next time I’m doing leg day by myself so I can feel strong again. 😅💪

Humbled. Destroyed. Walking like a baby deer.

The scary part is realizing your future is being built by ordinary daily choices.

At this point I’m not tracking macros.
The macros are tracking me.

Vacation mode:
Breakfast, snack, lunch, appetizer, emotional support dessert.

And somehow I’m still thinking about what we’re eating next.

POV: your car gets totaled and suddenly your entire life is sitting on the floor looking like a yard sale with emotional damage. 😅

But honestly… chaos usually looks worse before it gets better.
The trick is not trying to organize everything at once.
Just start making categories.
Trash. Keep. Donate. Random things that somehow ended up in your car 6 months ago. 😂

Organization isn’t about perfection.
It’s about making life feel a little lighter and easier to manage.

People think getting lean means eating tiny bland meals.

Meanwhile I’m over here eating taco salad with chips and almost 60g of protein.

Turns out consistency gets a lot easier when your meals actually taste good.
