I Found My Way Back Through Words

How reading saved my business, and why I’m writing again now.

The Girl Who Wrote

I’ve always had a thing for words. As a little girl, I filled diary after diary during quiet moments. Writing made me feel seen, even when no one else was watching. I wrote about everything: what I felt, what I dreamed, what I didn’t know how to say out loud. It was my safe space, my creative space, my home.

But life got loud.

When I Lost My Words

Somewhere along the way, I stopped writing. I stopped reading. I was building a business, juggling dreams and survival, and eventually, I burned out. I felt stuck. I was desperate. I even thought about giving up and closing the doors on everything I had worked for since 2005.

But something in me, maybe the girl who once wrote, started searching again.

I walked into a bookstore and picked up Rich Dad Poor Dad. That one book led me to another: The E-Myth Revisited. And that book… it cracked something open. It was like I found the answers I didn’t even know how to ask. It saved my business. It helped me see that I wasn’t broken. I just needed the right knowledge, the right mindset, and the right tools.

Becoming Her Again

That experience changed everything.I started growing again.I started leading with intention.And most importantly, I started believing in myself again.

Now, years later, I feel called to return to where it all began — words. Writing. Reflection. Sharing.This is my space to do that. To process, to tell the truth, to pass on the lessons I’ve learned the hard way.

This Is Brax Girl

This is what Becoming Her means to me: honoring the girl I was, giving voice to the woman I am, and reaching for the woman I’m still becoming.

And this space is for anyone who’s on that same journey.

Because being a Brax Girl means rising, growing, learning, and never giving up on the woman you’re meant to be. It means turning your pain into power, your detours into direction, and your story into strength.

Thank you for reading. I’m so glad you’re here.

Let’s become her, together.
