Do you really wanna know where I was April 29th?! Do you really wanna know where I was April 29th?! In surgery actually!! 🤣

I’ve been meaning to share an update since my surgery on Wednesday, but honestly, this recovery has been way harder than I expected. This was my second endometriosis surgery, but my first was just an ablation… and this time I had excision surgery. And when I say it feels like my insides went through a cheese grater… I wish I was kidding 🫠

But I have to take a moment to say how incredibly grateful I am for the team at UNC Hillsborough. From the moment I arrived, every single person who was in the OR came in, introduced themselves, reassured me, and truly cared. That kind of compassion in healthcare is rare, and I felt so at peace going into surgery.

My surgeon was absolutely amazing and believes she was able to remove all of my endometriosis 🙌🏼 We were really concerned it had spread to my bowels based on my symptoms, but thankfully it hadn’t. There was a nodule just millimeters away (which was likely causing so much of my pain), but she was able to remove it safely, meaning I don’t need another surgery with a colorectal specialist, which was my biggest fear.

I go back on May 22 for my post-op appointment to talk about next steps and treatment options. Unfortunately, endometriosis has no cure… and it can come back. There’s still such a lack of research and funding for women dealing with this disease, and that’s something that needs to change.

It’s also heartbreaking that we had to travel 3.5 hours just to receive this level of care. After years of being dismissed and gaslit by doctors, I finally feel like I’m on the right path.

I’m so thankful for my husband and my family who have been by my side through all of this. I’m praying this surgery gives me years of relief and a chance to live more pain-free 💛

If you’re struggling with endometriosis, I see you. You’re not alone. Please reach out to me if you are suffering too, I’d love to share more of my experience with you and help you the best way I can as well! #surgeryrecovery #endometriosis #endometriosissurgery #endometriosissupport #endowarrior
Alright y’all, I’ve officially checked in at UNC a Alright y’all, I’ve officially checked in at UNC and I’m just waiting to be called back! They even moved up my arrival time (bless 🙌🏻), but I’ve still got a couple hours to sit here and let the nerves + hanger kick in. And also how sexy does this surgical cap look on me?! 😆

After a brutal pain flare last night, I am MORE than ready to kick endometriosis’ ass today and finally get some relief 🙏 Time to evict everything that’s been causing all this chaos 😜

So help a girl out: drop your favorite distractions, funny stories, or literally anything to pass the time while I wait! Let’s do this!🫶 #endometriosis #endometriosiswarrior #endometriosissurgery #chronicillnesswarrior #excisionsurgery
Final meal, last hot bath, last hot tub soak, and Final meal, last hot bath, last hot tub soak, and ALL the feels before surgery tomorrow 🥹✨

Just soaking in every little moment today before my endometriosis surgery tomorrow. Started the morning with a cozy breakfast + cappuccino date with my sweet mama at @yellowmugcoffeelounge - aka my last meal before surgery 👀

I’m usually not a big breakfast girl, but you already know I made it count 😂 because pre-surgery rules = no food after 9 am this morning. Then I got the call that my arrival time moved up from 3:30 PM to 2:00 PM 🙌🏻 and honestly… I’ll take that win. The sooner it starts, the sooner recovery begins.

Today is all about the little things I won’t be able to do for a few weeks; long, scalding hot baths, hot tub soaks, and just slowing down. If you know me, you know hot baths are my daily therapy, so not having them for 4 weeks might be the real challenge 😅

But surprisingly, I feel really calm and at peace heading into this. Just ready to get through surgery and start healing 💛 And I feel all the prayers coming through, so thank you guys so much for all your support and love!

Instagram turned my last surgery prep video into A Instagram turned my last surgery prep video into Alvin & the Chipmunks 😭🤣

So if you saw my endometriosis surgery packing reel sounding like I inhaled helium all day… no you didn’t 😂 I have NO idea what happened, but we’re rolling with it lol.

Since that was a fail, I put together a hospital bag essentials carousel for endometriosis surgery / laparoscopy / hysterectomy prep so you can actually hear (and see) everything clearly this time 🙃

If you have endometriosis excision surgery or any kind of abdominal surgery coming up, this is everything I’m bringing to stay comfortable, prepared, and (hopefully) make recovery a little easier 🤍

We do have a 3.5 hour drive home after surgery, which honestly makes me a little nervous 😅 so I’m trying to be extra prepared this time around.

If you’ve had endometriosis surgery before, what am I missing?!
What helped you the MOST during recovery?
Any must-have items for a long car ride home post-op?

I’m so ready to finally get this done and hopefully get some relief from endo pain 🙌🏻 counting down the days!!

POV: You realize you have to remove your dip nails POV: You realize you have to remove your dip nails AND fast for 32+ hours before surgery 😅

I was honestly so sad taking off my dip powder nails for my upcoming endometriosis surgery next week. My natural nails have grown SO well with dip, but the second it comes off, they go right back to being super thin and fragile… and yep, one already broke 😭

But let’s be real… that’s not even the hardest part of surgery prep. I can’t eat anything after 9:00 AM the day before, and my surgery isn’t until late the NEXT day (arrival at 3:30 PM 😅). So we’re talking about a full 30+ hour fast before surgery… and I already know I’m about to be HANGRY 🫠

If you’ve had endometriosis surgery, hysterectomy, or any major surgery, tell me, how did you survive the fasting?! Drop your tips below because I need them 🙏

Just Trying to stay calm, trust God, and remind myself this is one step closer to answers + healing 💛

Flower Lovin’ Friends! Spring gardening is offici Flower Lovin’ Friends! 
Spring gardening is officially underway 🌸 and this past weekend turned into the best little dose of gardening therapy I didn’t know I needed 💚 With everything going on lately, getting outside, planting flowers, and soaking up that sunshine was exactly what my mind needed.

We may have gotten a little too confident with those 85° temps though… because just days later, the cold snap hit hard 🙄 (tell me why spring weather is like this??). But somehow, my flowers are still thriving 🌼✨

My garden seedlings on the other hand… not so much 🥲 BUT my sweet peppers are holding on strong and currently the real MVPs of the garden 🌱👏

Gardening is definitely a learning process, especially with unpredictable spring weather, but I’m not giving up, just replanting and trying again (and maybe checking the forecast a little better next time 😂)

If you’re starting your spring garden, let this be your reminder: be patient, expect a few setbacks, and celebrate the little wins 🌿💛

I wanted to give you all an update on my pre-surge I wanted to give you all an update on my pre-surgery appointment at UNC 🤍

If I’m being honest… I woke up feeling really heavy today. Not because the appointment went badly, it actually went so well. The doctors were incredibly kind, compassionate, and for the first time, I truly felt seen, heard, and validated in my pain. I could’ve cried happy tears.

But after going over all my symptoms, they told me something that honestly shook me, but didn’t surprise me because this is what I feared all along. There’s a strong possibility my endometriosis has spread to my bowels.

And that’s where the emotions hit.

I’m angry.
Angry that I had to drive 3.5 hours just to receive proper care.
Angry that when I first brought up these symptoms, I was dismissed and told it was “rare.”
Angry that I lost months trying to find someone who would actually listen.
Angry that I wasn’t fully informed after my last surgery, that I didn’t even know endometriosis could spread to organs like the bladder… or beyond.

I had to fight for my own medical records.
I had to advocate for myself every step of the way.
And that shouldn’t be the reality for women’s healthcare.

So here’s where things stand: my surgery is scheduled for the 29th. During surgery, they’ll check my bowels. If the endometriosis is superficial, they can shave it off then. But if it’s deeper, I may need a second, more serious surgery with a colorectal specialist.

And yes… that possibility is scary. Because with that kind of surgery, you could end up with a colostomy bag which is my worst nightmare. 

But I’m also proud of myself for trusting my body and refusing to stay silent.

Endometriosis is not “just a bad period.”
It’s a full-body disease.
And more women need to know that.

I’m sharing this because I never want another woman to feel dismissed, unheard, or alone in this. Please listen to your body. Advocate for yourself. Keep pushing until someone listens.

Right now, I’m choosing faith over fear and trusting God that I’m in the right hands 🙏🏼 

Thank you all so much for your constant love, prayers, and support. It truly means everything to me! 💛 #endometriosis #endometriosiswarrior #endometriosisawareness

How to Style a Thanksgiving Tablescape

I’ve shared a lot of tablescapes in the past, but I think my Thanksgiving tablescape this year is one of my very favorites! I wanted to change it up a tad from my fall tablescape that I shared a little bit ago. I wanted something a little more elevated and fancy for our Thanksgiving table.

And I think I nailed it! I found most pieces from Belk and they all just came together so perfectly!

How to Style a Thanksgiving Tablescape
Shop this space below:

This post contains affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

The Before

I started off with a blank slate. Just my usual placemats and galvanized metal chargers that I use. Then my white tray that I use as a centerpiece.

I emptied everything off of it first to get ready to style my Thanksgiving tablescape!

Amber Goblets

The very first thing I saw while shopping at Belk were these beautiful amber goblets. This is definitely what inspired my Thanksgiving tablescape to begin with. I just love the bubbly glass texture to them.

They almost look vintage and I think that is why I was so drawn to them. If you know me, then you know I am a sucker for anything vintage!

I think these amber goblets alone make the entire table feel more fancy. Don’t you just love fancy and festive glassware?! It’s not everyday that you can drink out of something so pretty!

That’s why I wanted something a little more sophisticated than my copper mugs I had on my fall tablescape.

Amber Glass on Thanksgiving Table
I just love it when the natural light shines through all this amber glass!

Amber Vase

To go along with the amber goblets, I saw a matching amber vase that I thought would be perfect in my centerpiece tray. They had two different sizes to choose from and I hesitated at first about which one to get.

I was originally thinking that the smaller one would look better, but at the end I changed my mind and grabbed the larger one.

And I am so glad I did because it is the perfect size!

Battery Operated Candles

Who doesn’t love a cozy Thanksgiving Tablescape?! That’s why I thought it would be fun to add in some battery operated candles.

You don’t have to worry about the mess of wax melting from candlesticks onto your table with these beauties!

I found some beautiful mango wood candlesticks too and thought these candles would work perfectly on them. I got a small and a large one and I love the varying heights it creates.

I had one candle leftover after placing them on the candlesticks and I thought why not add it inside the vase?!

This created a cozy, ambient glow, especially at night. And I love how having the candle inside the amber vase really highlights the amber colors.

Which, as you can see, that was my main goal in creating in this Thanksgiving tablescape. I also love how these candles come with a remote control so you can easily turn them off and on.

Cozy, Ambient Thanksgiving Centerpiece
Look at that cozy glow from the candles!

Festive Thanksgiving Plates

The next part of my Thanksgiving tablescape are these festive plates. I got a gold-rimmed dinner plate which I love because it’s not too over the top.

The gold can be carried into Christmas and even New Years as well. You know I love to get pieces that can easily be transitioned into other seasons and/or holidays.

My salad/dessert plates are a tad bit more Thanksgiving related. As they all say “Blessed, Thankful, Grateful, and Gather”.

But they also have a gold rim around them and beautiful gold leaf detailing as well. You could also break these out early and use them during the fall too if you wanted to get more life out of them this season.

Other Details

Another fun detail I added in is this beautiful jute table runner. This definitely can be used over and over again as it is a great neutral piece.

And it is the perfect length to lay under my tray that I always use for a centerpiece as well.

You may also remember these beautiful florals I used from my fall table this year as well. I decided to bring them on into my Thanksgiving tablescape too since they were the perfect color scheme.

Well, this is everything that I did for my Thanksgiving tablescape this year. I hope you enjoyed it and were inspired a little bit from it as well.

Are you hosting Thanksgiving this year? And if so, are you planning on doing a tablescape too?? I would love to hear all your ideas below!

Do you really wanna know where I was April 29th?! Do you really wanna know where I was April 29th?! In surgery actually!! 🤣

I’ve been meaning to share an update since my surgery on Wednesday, but honestly, this recovery has been way harder than I expected. This was my second endometriosis surgery, but my first was just an ablation… and this time I had excision surgery. And when I say it feels like my insides went through a cheese grater… I wish I was kidding 🫠

But I have to take a moment to say how incredibly grateful I am for the team at UNC Hillsborough. From the moment I arrived, every single person who was in the OR came in, introduced themselves, reassured me, and truly cared. That kind of compassion in healthcare is rare, and I felt so at peace going into surgery.

My surgeon was absolutely amazing and believes she was able to remove all of my endometriosis 🙌🏼 We were really concerned it had spread to my bowels based on my symptoms, but thankfully it hadn’t. There was a nodule just millimeters away (which was likely causing so much of my pain), but she was able to remove it safely, meaning I don’t need another surgery with a colorectal specialist, which was my biggest fear.

I go back on May 22 for my post-op appointment to talk about next steps and treatment options. Unfortunately, endometriosis has no cure… and it can come back. There’s still such a lack of research and funding for women dealing with this disease, and that’s something that needs to change.

It’s also heartbreaking that we had to travel 3.5 hours just to receive this level of care. After years of being dismissed and gaslit by doctors, I finally feel like I’m on the right path.

I’m so thankful for my husband and my family who have been by my side through all of this. I’m praying this surgery gives me years of relief and a chance to live more pain-free 💛

If you’re struggling with endometriosis, I see you. You’re not alone. Please reach out to me if you are suffering too, I’d love to share more of my experience with you and help you the best way I can as well! #surgeryrecovery #endometriosis #endometriosissurgery #endometriosissupport #endowarrior
Alright y’all, I’ve officially checked in at UNC a Alright y’all, I’ve officially checked in at UNC and I’m just waiting to be called back! They even moved up my arrival time (bless 🙌🏻), but I’ve still got a couple hours to sit here and let the nerves + hanger kick in. And also how sexy does this surgical cap look on me?! 😆

After a brutal pain flare last night, I am MORE than ready to kick endometriosis’ ass today and finally get some relief 🙏 Time to evict everything that’s been causing all this chaos 😜

So help a girl out: drop your favorite distractions, funny stories, or literally anything to pass the time while I wait! Let’s do this!🫶 #endometriosis #endometriosiswarrior #endometriosissurgery #chronicillnesswarrior #excisionsurgery
Final meal, last hot bath, last hot tub soak, and Final meal, last hot bath, last hot tub soak, and ALL the feels before surgery tomorrow 🥹✨

Just soaking in every little moment today before my endometriosis surgery tomorrow. Started the morning with a cozy breakfast + cappuccino date with my sweet mama at @yellowmugcoffeelounge - aka my last meal before surgery 👀

I’m usually not a big breakfast girl, but you already know I made it count 😂 because pre-surgery rules = no food after 9 am this morning. Then I got the call that my arrival time moved up from 3:30 PM to 2:00 PM 🙌🏻 and honestly… I’ll take that win. The sooner it starts, the sooner recovery begins.

Today is all about the little things I won’t be able to do for a few weeks; long, scalding hot baths, hot tub soaks, and just slowing down. If you know me, you know hot baths are my daily therapy, so not having them for 4 weeks might be the real challenge 😅

But surprisingly, I feel really calm and at peace heading into this. Just ready to get through surgery and start healing 💛 And I feel all the prayers coming through, so thank you guys so much for all your support and love!

So if you saw my endometriosis surgery packing reel sounding like I inhaled helium all day… no you didn’t 😂 I have NO idea what happened, but we’re rolling with it lol.

Since that was a fail, I put together a hospital bag essentials carousel for endometriosis surgery / laparoscopy / hysterectomy prep so you can actually hear (and see) everything clearly this time 🙃

If you have endometriosis excision surgery or any kind of abdominal surgery coming up, this is everything I’m bringing to stay comfortable, prepared, and (hopefully) make recovery a little easier 🤍

We do have a 3.5 hour drive home after surgery, which honestly makes me a little nervous 😅 so I’m trying to be extra prepared this time around.

If you’ve had endometriosis surgery before, what am I missing?!
What helped you the MOST during recovery?
Any must-have items for a long car ride home post-op?

I’m so ready to finally get this done and hopefully get some relief from endo pain 🙌🏻 counting down the days!! And if you have a surgery like this coming up too and want my list of essentials sent your way, just comment “endo” below and I’ll send them straight to you! 😉 #minimallyinvasivesurgery #surgeryessentials #surgeryprep #endometriosissurgery #endometriosisexcision
POV: You realize you have to remove your dip nails POV: You realize you have to remove your dip nails AND fast for 32+ hours before surgery 😅

I was honestly so sad taking off my dip powder nails for my upcoming endometriosis surgery next week. My natural nails have grown SO well with dip, but the second it comes off, they go right back to being super thin and fragile… and yep, one already broke 😭

But let’s be real… that’s not even the hardest part of surgery prep. I can’t eat anything after 9:00 AM the day before, and my surgery isn’t until late the NEXT day (arrival at 3:30 PM 😅). So we’re talking about a full 30+ hour fast before surgery… and I already know I’m about to be HANGRY 🫠

If you’ve had endometriosis surgery, hysterectomy, or any major surgery, tell me, how did you survive the fasting?! Drop your tips below because I need them 🙏

Just Trying to stay calm, trust God, and remind myself this is one step closer to answers + healing 💛

Flower Lovin’ Friends! Spring gardening is offici Flower Lovin’ Friends! 
Spring gardening is officially underway 🌸 and this past weekend turned into the best little dose of gardening therapy I didn’t know I needed 💚 With everything going on lately, getting outside, planting flowers, and soaking up that sunshine was exactly what my mind needed.

We may have gotten a little too confident with those 85° temps though… because just days later, the cold snap hit hard 🙄 (tell me why spring weather is like this??). But somehow, my flowers are still thriving 🌼✨

My garden seedlings on the other hand… not so much 🥲 BUT my sweet peppers are holding on strong and currently the real MVPs of the garden 🌱👏

Gardening is definitely a learning process, especially with unpredictable spring weather, but I’m not giving up, just replanting and trying again (and maybe checking the forecast a little better next time 😂)

If you’re starting your spring garden, let this be your reminder: be patient, expect a few setbacks, and celebrate the little wins 🌿💛

I wanted to give you all an update on my pre-surge I wanted to give you all an update on my pre-surgery appointment at UNC 🤍

If I’m being honest… I woke up feeling really heavy today. Not because the appointment went badly, it actually went so well. The doctors were incredibly kind, compassionate, and for the first time, I truly felt seen, heard, and validated in my pain. I could’ve cried happy tears.

But after going over all my symptoms, they told me something that honestly shook me, but didn’t surprise me because this is what I feared all along. There’s a strong possibility my endometriosis has spread to my bowels.

And that’s where the emotions hit.

I’m angry.
Angry that I had to drive 3.5 hours just to receive proper care.
Angry that when I first brought up these symptoms, I was dismissed and told it was “rare.”
Angry that I lost months trying to find someone who would actually listen.
Angry that I wasn’t fully informed after my last surgery, that I didn’t even know endometriosis could spread to organs like the bladder… or beyond.

I had to fight for my own medical records.
I had to advocate for myself every step of the way.
And that shouldn’t be the reality for women’s healthcare.

So here’s where things stand: my surgery is scheduled for the 29th. During surgery, they’ll check my bowels. If the endometriosis is superficial, they can shave it off then. But if it’s deeper, I may need a second, more serious surgery with a colorectal specialist.

And yes… that possibility is scary. Because with that kind of surgery, you could end up with a colostomy bag which is my worst nightmare. 

But I’m also proud of myself for trusting my body and refusing to stay silent.

Endometriosis is not “just a bad period.”
It’s a full-body disease.
And more women need to know that.

I’m sharing this because I never want another woman to feel dismissed, unheard, or alone in this. Please listen to your body. Advocate for yourself. Keep pushing until someone listens.

Right now, I’m choosing faith over fear and trusting God that I’m in the right hands 🙏🏼 

Thank you all so much for your constant love, prayers, and support. It truly means everything to me! 💛 #endometriosis #endometriosiswarrior #endometriosisawareness

Our last night in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina was unforgettable thanks to @nativesonadventures! We hopped on their sunset cruise and made a stop at the famous shell island to search for shark teeth (no luck this time 😅), but WOW… the shells were absolutely unreal. I’ve never seen so many beautiful ones in one place!

Everything is super fresh, and you can fully customize your burrito, bowl, tacos, or quesadilla exactly how you want. PLUS they have a full coffee bar, so it’s also one of the best breakfast spots on Hilton Head too ☕️

We biked over for lunch one day (highly recommend doing this if you’re exploring Hilton Head by bike 🚲), and it ended up being our favorite meal of the trip. The seafood was incredible, I got the crab legs and they were SO good, but honestly the entire menu looked amazing 🤤

Between the stunning marina views, laid-back coastal vibes, and all the fun gift shops (yes, we grabbed way too much merch 😂), this spot is such a fun experience from start to finish.

We had the best Easter dinner at Benny’s in Hilton We had the best Easter dinner at Benny’s in Hilton Head this past weekend, and I’m still thinking about it 🤤 It was our very first night on the island, and this spot completely set the tone for the trip!

The atmosphere? Absolutely beautiful. Coastal, cozy, and the perfect vibe for a special night out ✨

We started with the hushpuppies and skillet shrimp, and let me tell you… that sauce was SO good I could’ve drank it 😂

For dinner, I had the seared mahi mahi and my husband ordered the swordfish, both were insanely fresh and full of flavor 🙌

And don’t even get me started on dessert… the key lime cheesecake with toasted meringue?? UNREAL 🤤🍰

We squeezed in a spontaneous trip after an epic night at an Eric Church concert and before heading to Hilton Head Island… and honestly, it was SO worth it.

From strolling the historic downtown streets to shopping, eating, and soaking in all the southern charm, Savannah is seriously picture-perfect. We explored the iconic Riverwalk, admired the architecture, and of course had to stop by the stunning @jwmarriottsavannah Plant Riverside District to check out the fossils, geodes, and one-of-a-kind lobby 😍

We stayed at @thedraytonhotel which was the PERFECT location for walking everywhere (highly recommend if you’re planning a Savannah trip 👀), and wrapped up the night with dinner at @circa1875savannah 🤌✨
