Introduction

Who am I? I’m Kristin. I am a wife to Kevin, a stepmom to 3 girls (current ages of 15, 13, and 7), and a cat mom to 3 cats (we have 4 total but one lives separately upstairs). I have struggled with my mental health since I was a teenager, and I have been in multiple rounds of therapy over the years when faced with particularly rough times. I have learned a lot about myself but still struggle with the same things over and over again. Every time I think I am “done”, something else comes up and I go back to it. Such is the cycle of my life thus far.

Throughout my adult life, I never understood certain aspects of my personality, but I am slowly learning along the way. I got married, for the first time, at age 19. I was with my ex-husband for a total of 12 years and more information will come about that later most likely. The important aspect of that relationship was that he always told me I was “too loud” or “too silly”. He didn’t want me to draw too much attention to myself in public. It was the same way as a child. I had to be quiet and not in the way.

As an adult, I went to Walt Disney World for the first time, and I have been hooked ever since. What I have since learned is that Disney speaks to my inner child, the one that I suppressed for most of my life. As I work through my childhood wounds, I offer you to join me on my journey.

I am a Disney adult. A Star Wars, Harry Potter, and LOTR fan. A Lego builder (mostly of Harry Potter castles and Star Wars ships). A Funko pop collector. A Loungefly and Minnie Mouse ear collector. A Star Wards Jedi Fallen Order & Survivor video game player. Come along with me as I attempt to heal. ☺️
