Additionally, we strive to create a community for those who have experienced childhood trauma and the lasting effects it can have on mental health.
Brash is more than just a blog, it’s a movement towards breaking down barriers and promoting understanding and acceptance of mental health. We hope to continue growing our community and providing valuable resources for those in need. Together, we can overcome the challenges of mental illness and thrive in our journey towards well-being. So stay bold, stay brash, and join us on this journey towards healing and a happier you! Because you matter!
Our Passion
At Brash, this isn’t just a mission—it’s personal.
I spent way too many years believing I wasn’t enough. Not smart enough, not strong enough, not worthy enough. That belief shaped how I showed up in the world—shrinking myself, over-explaining, trying to earn space I already deserved. I know what it feels like to live in survival mode, to cry in parking lots, to wonder if you’ll ever feel normal again.
I’ve lived the panic attacks, the bone-deep burnout, the spirals that convinced me I was broken beyond repair. But I’ve also clawed my way through it—one messy, imperfect, wildly brave step at a time. So no, this isn’t just about surviving the storm—it’s about learning to dance in the damn downpour (and maybe cuss a little while we do it).
Brash was built from the wreckage of that belief and the rebuilding that followed. My passion here is transformation: taking anxiety, pain, and all those soul-crushing moments and flipping the script. Because yeah, life can be brutal. But it can also be brilliant.
We believe in using what once broke us as the very thing that builds us. That knot-in-your-chest anxiety? That bone-deep sadness? That rage, fear, and feeling like you’ll never be okay again? That’s fuel, baby. And we’re here to help you turn it into something powerful—a bold, beautiful life you actually want to wake up to.
This isn’t about perfection. It’s about progression.
About laughing through the chaos, healing on your own terms, and becoming someone even you didn’t see coming.
I created Brash to be the space I wish I’d had when I felt like too much and not enough, all at once—bold, honest, grounded in real tools and laced with the kind of support that doesn’t flinch when things get hard.
So go ahead—be messy, be loud, be brash. You’re not too much. You’re just getting started. And I’m right here, cheering you on as you turn your pain into your power and your “WTF is happening?” into your “Hell yes, I did that.”
What We Stand For
At Brash, we’re not here to play it safe or stay surface-level. We’re here to flip the script, speak the truth, and help you turn your pain into power—one brutally honest, wildly transformative moment at a time.
We believe in keeping it real while keeping it moving. So here’s what we value and what we’re working toward—because for us, they go hand-in-hand.
Mental Health Is Non-Negotiable.
We stand for breaking the stigma around mental illness, addiction, trauma, and healing. Our goal? To make real talk about mental health as normal as texting your bestie memes at midnight.
Radical Compassion (With Boundaries).
We’re all about heart—and backbone. We love hard, support deeply, and encourage fiercely. But we’re also not afraid to call out what’s holding you back, because growth needs both grace and grit.
Use the Pain. Fuel the Power.
We believe your lowest moments can become the launchpad for your best life. Our mission is to help you take all that anxiety, fear, and heartache—and build something unshakably you.
We Laugh Through the Pain.
Healing is heavy—but we don’t have to carry it without a little levity. We believe in finding light in the dark, cracking jokes in the chaos, and using humor as a release valve—not a mask. Laughter doesn’t dismiss the pain; it gives us the strength to keep going.
Progress Over Perfection.
We’re not chasing flawless. We’re chasing freedom. Our goal is to support your transformation—messy steps, ugly cries, backslides and all. Because healing isn’t linear, but it is possible.
Build Community. Burn Shame
We’re here to create a space where people feel safe to show up exactly as they are. No judgement. No performative wellness vibes. Just real connection and collective healing.
