I Didn’t Come This Far Just to... Start a Blog

Let me be clear: I didn’t claw my way through trauma, addiction, late-night Google searches for “how to change your life at 40,” and the occasional existential spiral just to start a blog.

But here we are.

Because somewhere between rebuilding my life, going back to school, and launching a business that actually means something, I realized I had a few things to say. Not from a pedestal. Not from a perfectly curated Instagram grid. But from the messy, beautiful middle—where healing meets hustle, and grace shows up wearing sneakers and a coffee-stained hoodie.

This blog isn’t just a digital journal or some “dear diary, I’m evolving” situation. It’s a corner of the internet for those of us who’ve been through the fire and are still standing—sometimes shakily, sometimes sassily, but always with heart.

Why I Started Tevahri

Tevahri was born from the ashes (literally and metaphorically). It’s for the woman—or man—who’s walked through addiction, burnout, grief, or that sneaky voice that whispers you’re not good enough and decided, “Not today, shame. I’ve got sh*t to do.”

It’s for the person who wants to build something—maybe a new career, maybe a new life—but doesn’t want to do it alone, in silence, or pretending like it’s easy.

Here, we talk pivots. Purpose. Possibility. And yes, some occasional profanity. Because when you’ve been through some things, sometimes “gosh darn it” just doesn’t cut it.

What You Can Expect

Expect real talk. The kind of content that doesn’t try to sell you a perfect morning routine or convince you that the answer is always kale. (No offense to kale.)

I’ll be writing about:
– Career change after chaos
– Building a business with soul
– Recovery—not just from substances, but from people-pleasing, perfectionism, and playing small
– Mental health and motivation (on the days when even brushing your teeth feels like a win)
– And probably memes. Because laughter is holy.

If You’re Still Here, We’re Already on the Same Page

So if something I say sparks something in you—drop a comment, shoot me a message, or send me your favorite GIF of a dog doing something totally chaotic or heart-melting (bonus points for floppy ears or dramatic side-eyes). Let’s connect.

Because I didn’t come this far just to start a blog.
I came this far to build a legacy.
Let’s get to it.
