shift happens | personal growth, self-reflection, and stories that shift your perspective
life handed me stories i never expected… like discovering family secrets, surprise relatives, becoming a mom before i was ready, enough therapy to fill a book, and carrying grief that quietly shaped who i am. and if i learned one thing through it all, it’s this: change is inevitable, but growth is a choice.
stories matter. yours. mine. the messy, hidden, uncomfortable parts people don’t say out loud? i care about those. empathy, reflection, and honest conversations are my thing.
shift happens is your safe space for candid conversations and honest reflections that push you to own your story, face the hard truths, and keep moving forward (together).
because at the end of the day, the question isn’t “why did it happen”... it’s “what are you gonna do about it?”

if you’re sitting in silence right now scared to speak up because you think it’ll cost you too much… this is your sign. your wounds don’t get the last word. your scars do. and it’s time you let them. judy shares the moment she stopped performing, stopped shrinking, and finally told the truth she’d been carrying for decades... in her book, in her life, and to the people who needed to hear it most.
and honestly? the way her kids responded… yeah, that one got me. the way her relationship with her mom shifted after the book? also wild. it’s proof that sometimes telling the truth doesn’t blow up your life, it gives you a brand-new one. so if you’re listening and you feel like you’ve been holding your breath for years… this convo is your nudge. you don’t have to stay stuck in the version of you everyone else got comfortable with.
