Cancer

When you’ve lived through pain, your mind can get stuck replaying old moments.

Old mistakes.

Old losses.

Old identities.

Depression often pulls you backward, convincing you that the past defines you — that what happened then is who you still are now.

But the past only has power when we keep feeding it.

When we carry yesterday’s wounds into today, we block ourselves from healing, from opportunity, from becoming someone new.

Let the past be a chapter, not a prison.

You deserve a life that isn’t decided by old pain, old stories, or old versions of you.

Today isn’t asking you to rewrite everything.

It’s simply asking you to show up.

To breathe.

To take one step forward — no matter how small.

Your future isn’t built from what happened yesterday.

It starts with what you choose right now.

What small choice will you make today that your future self will thank you for?

Also, if you're going through a tough time right now, I want you to know that I post daily mental health videos about how to deal with painful thoughts.

One tradition I love doing is getting a pumpkin in fall (real or fake) and adding things we are thankful for to it every day.

What would you add to the pumpkin if you could write something on it today?

When you’re struggling, it’s easy to look at how far you have to go — and it feels impossible.
You start thinking about all the habits you need to build, all the pain you have to heal, all the changes you should make.

But recovery doesn’t happen all at once.


It happens one moment at a time.


One breath.


One small act of courage.


No matter how long your journey seems, this moment — right now — is the only one that truly matters.
And if you can take care of this moment, the rest will take care of itself.


👉 What’s one small step you can take right now to move forward?
