Vulnerable Update:

as I sat on my kitchen floor today about to have yet another breakdown…a common occurrence for about the past month…I realized I have to be brave. I have to open up to my community. I have to be honest.

because this little game of highlight reels and hustle just isn’t real life. Real life isn’t always aesthetic. It can be messy. It can be overwhelming. It can be scary if we walk it alone.

Many of those close to me know my past struggles, but only a handful know about the struggles I continue to face.

If you’ve never battled an eating disorder or hypothalamic amenorrhea you may not understand—and that’s what makes it so hard to open up about. To open up about the hormonal chaos that consumes your life because you basically have none. The constant fear and shame and exhaustion. Never being able to rest or slow down. Never feeling enough.

Until your body fights back. The extreme hunger and fatigue. The bloating and brain fog that comes with healing. The surrender to focus on yourself in order to show up in life. The fear of looking lazy and unaccomplished to the world.

I decided to stop posting much on socials almost two weeks ago as I sorted through life without the need to show it off. I’ve tried to cut back on scrolling as it just hasn’t been serving my mental health (or physical health).

And I’ve decided, as of today, that my last market will be November 22nd. It’s just not serving me. I’ll detail that more in a future post as to what to expect in the future as my brand transitions to what truly fills me.

Until then, I pray whatever you’re going through that you find community. Because no one needs to struggle alone. We can only thrive if we feel connected; and if you need someone to connect with and talk to—-I’m always here.

Tis the season of gratitude, and I can’t express enough how grateful I am for those who continue to support my small little business week after week.

If you couldn’t make it out this morning, I do have extra goodies up for grabs. I will be in McClellanville tomorrow and Mount Pleasant on Tuesday for anyone interested in meeting up. If you would like to meet in Pawley’s island I could make it up there Thursday morning.

Enjoy the warm weather for the next few days….and if you need a nourishing treat to pair with a warm mug of coffee/tea/cocoa as the temps drop this week, hit me up. 🫶🏼

What I have available:

Granola: gingerbread or golden milk
Scones: persimmon dark chocolate & olive oil or berry white chocolate
Rosemary olive oil shortbread
Butternut little bites
White chocolate macadamia pumpkin pie bars
Monster cookie cream pies
Sweet potato biscuits
Smoky bbq "cheesy" crackers
Marshmallows
Banana pumpkin seed energy bites
Chia seed rolls ( low carb)

HAPPY NOVEMBER FAM. 💜

I have been busy creating my holiday special order menu, so be in the lookout later today for that launch 👀

As we get further into the holiday season, nourishment and self care become even more important. The truth is, you do have to spend the next two months in a constant blood sugar roller coaster…and I’m here to help.

I’m here to help you fully THRIVE this season without sacrificing your favorite treats. If you would like to preorder and pickup somewhere other than The Growers Market, just message me. I’m always willing to set up another pickup time/location to help you live your best life. ✌🏼
