Today was one of those days I’ll remember for the rest of my life.
🥋 I was promoted to Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu after years of showing up, learning, failing, getting back up, and trusting the process.
☕ I also accepted an offer to join Creature Coffee as a Bookkeeper & Financial Analyst. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity and excited to begin this new chapter in my career.
🐦 This morning, my sister and I were able to rescue a young bird after it flew into our glass door. Seeing it recover and safely return to nature was a simple but meaningful reminder that sometimes we’re exactly where we’re needed.
Some other wins:
✅ Recovery from my foot surgery continues to improve—I can put more weight on both feet every day.
✅ Stayed clean and sober for another 24 hours.
✅ Celebrated this milestone with great friends.
✅ Ended the day with gratitude instead of fear.
Not long ago, I didn’t know what the next chapter would look like. Today reminded me that when I stay committed to recovery, faith, discipline, and doing the next right thing, life has a way of opening doors.
I’m grateful to God, my friends, my recovery community, my professors, my teammates, and everyone who has walked beside me on this journey.
One day at a time. Keep showing up.
