Herrss Blog

Welcome to the blog a space where I share my poetry, my thoughts, and the quiet ideas that shape my becoming. This is where I speak freely, reflect honestly, and invite you into the deeper layers of healing and self-discovery. You’ll also find the heart of my work here: the 4N framework Notice, Name, Navigate, Nurture guiding us back to ourselves, one truth at a time. 🌿

🌻 Wildflower to Wildflower: What’s Keeping You Stuck?

Life has a way of being weird and hectic all at once. And if I am honest, lately I have been in my own way more times than I can count.

I have noticed something about myself. The way I shrink when it is time to shine. The way I second guess when it is time to believe. The way I imagine the life I want, but then quietly convince myself it is too much for me. Too big. Too beautiful. Too good to be mine.

That realization hit me. This is what has been keeping me stuck.

An End To Something Great

I can feel it. The quiet shift. The slow untying of a knot I didn’t know I was still holding.

This job has been one of the greatest chapters of my life. It sits at the top of my gratitude list every single time. I am grateful for the security it has given me. I am grateful for the structure, the routine, the chance to show up and be counted on. I am grateful for the ways it made me grow.
