I am Rachel Elizabeth! Welcome to my blog. Here is where I share authentic stories from my life including dealing with mental health, adopting two adorable pups, planning my wedding (multiple times), traveling, and much more. I share my thoughts in the hopes to spread awareness on mental health and bring more positivity into your life.

“My decision to walk away from track and cross country was my decision, and mine alone. At first, I had the intention to just take one step away. One step back, to regroup and refocus on me. Focus on my physical challenges…Focus on my mental challenges.”
This week my anxiety has been paralyzing, and I am overwhelmed, stressed and frustrated. Weeks that are stressful and soul-crushing remind me that I have so much to be grateful for. I am thankful for the challenging moments and the moments of blissful joy because these moments allow me to reflect and be grateful.
