🎄 Christmas Day Check-In 🎄 If today feels joyful, hold onto it.If today feels heavy, you’re not broken. Christmas can bring love, memories, grief, loneliness, pressure, and expectations—all at the same time. You don’t owe anyone a smile you don’t feel or energy you don’t have. Take breaks. Breathe. Step away if you need to. Protect your peace today. Your mental health matters just as much today as any other day. Maybe even more. If you’re struggling, you’re not alone—and if no one has told you yet: I’m proud of you for making it to today. 🖤 One day at a time.#PeteVsAnxiety #MentalHealthMatters #ChristmasDay #YouAreNotAlone #HolidayCheckIn

If you know me, you know I’m a die-hard NCAA women’s volleyball fan – a proud Nebraskan through and through. This year was my 7th straight national championship trip, and it might be the most meaningful one yet. Just a week after Texas A&M handed my undefeated Cornhuskers a brutal season-ending loss, I was in Kansas City…cheering hard for the Aggies. That spontaneous “Why not us?” chant that started back in the Sweet 16 somehow carried them all the way to the national title. Against every odd, they took down three No. 1 seeds in a row and became national champions yesterday. There were so many moments where they looked done—down big, momentum gone, backs against the wall. And yet, time after time, they rallied. It was pure grit. Resilience in real time. Watching it, something clicked: this is our sobriety journey. We get knocked down. We face days that feel impossible. Our backs press against the wall with cravings, shame, memories, anxiety. But we keep showing up. We rally. We refuse to quit. And that same quiet, stubborn, day-after-day grit is what wins in recovery too. Texas A&M showed that “Why not us?” isn’t just a chant; it’s a mindset. Your sobriety story can end the same way: champion. Keep showing up. Never give up. Why not you? Who else caught any of the tournament or felt a similar “rally” in your own journey lately? Drop it below. Grit wins!

🎄 Holiday Reminder for Your Mental Health 🎄 The holidays aren’t always merry—and that’s okay. If this season feels heavy, overwhelming, or lonely, please know you’re not broken. You’re human. You don’t have to force happiness. You don’t have to attend every gathering. You don’t have to explain your boundaries. Take breaks. Rest when needed. Say no when you must. Your mental health matters just as much as any tradition. If today is hard, you’re not alone—and it won’t always feel this way. 💚 #MentalHealthMatters #

With the deepest sympathy and all my heart, I want to share that my dear friend Malisa has lost her son to an overdose. It’s been weighing heavy on me — it really makes you stop and think, “What would I do if it were my own child?” Those who know me know I always try to find the right words, but this time, I was at a loss. What can you really say in a moment like this? Sometimes the truest thing you can offer is a simple, “I’m here if you need me,” along with love and hugs from the heart. I took a day off from recording just to sit with this. As an empath, it’s hard not to feel it deeply, but I also know I can’t let it break me. I’ll keep moving forward while holding space for love, prayers, and comfort for Malisa and her family. I know she would truly appreciate all the love we can send her way during this unimaginable loss. heroes die kid but legends they live on forever as babe ruth told Bennie in the sandlot he will be forever remembered😵‍💫
