Embracing the beautiful & broken journey of becoming, finding bliss in the process, and realizing that all along you were blooming.
That is the essence of Blissfully B, this blog, and my heartbeat for this entire concept that was born out of my own journey of becoming.
There’s something sacred about becoming. Not in a rushed, linear, highlight-reel kind of way—but in the quiet, not so pretty, often unseen process of growing into the best version of yourself.
I used to think “becoming” meant figuring it all out—who I was, what I was meant to do, and how I could finally arrive. But the older I get, the more I realize that becoming isn’t about arriving. It’s about returning. Returning to the person you were always meant to be.
And maybe even more than that—it’s about simply being.
Your Purpose is Yours, Always
One of the most freeing truths I’ve learned is that your purpose can never be stripped away from you. No missed opportunity, wrong turn, or delay can take it from you. It will always be yours. It’s whether you step into it or not. This is a truth I have held onto as I’ve grown in this journey of becoming and hold onto my faith of knowing that God has plans for me that are far better than I could ask, think, or imagine.
It’s rarely our inadequacy that holds us back—more often, it’s our unwillingness to begin. We think we need to feel fully ready, fully healed, or fully confident before we start stepping into who we are. But maybe it’s in the doing, the trying, and the stumbling that we become who we were always meant to be.
The Beauty in Timing
If you’re anything like me, you’ve had moments where you’ve asked: “Why didn’t that door open? Why didn’t it work out?”
But in time—and often in hindsight—you begin to see it. The timing of events, the closed doors, the relationships that ended, the jobs that didn’t work out… it all unfolded exactly the way it needed to.
There’s a divine rhythm to our stories that we don’t always notice while we’re in them. Every delay, every redirection, every step that felt like a setback—was actually a gentle hand guiding you closer to where you truly belong.
Bliss in the Becoming
The version of me writing this blog isn’t the same girl who started Blissfully B after graduation. She’s a little softer now. A little more aware that brokenness and beauty often coexist. I am still very much in process but I am learning to shed some of that perfectionism that held me captive for years.
I’ve learned to look back at the winding road behind me—not with shame, but with grace. To prioritize how my life feels, rather than what it looks like. To honor the scars that tell stories. To remember the moments I wish I could relive and the ones I wouldn’t want to repeat. The people who shaped me, the places that grew me, and the seasons that stretched me.
They were all part of my becoming. And in the midst of it all, I’ve found bliss—not in perfection, but in presence. Not in a set destination or success, but in the unfolding, beautiful & broken journey of becoming.
Because the truth is, you don’t have to reach your best self to be enough. All along you were blooming.
When Everyone’s Path Looks Different
Growing up, we moved together—sat in the same classrooms, ate lunch at the same tables, and cheered from the same sidelines. We grew together, because for a long time, life felt like a shared path.
But then, somewhere in your twenties, something shifts.
Suddenly, the paths start to split. Some friends settle down, get married, and start families. Others chase careers, change cities, or go back to school. Some still feel lost, unsure, in-between. And for the first time, everyone’s sunset looks a different shade than yours.
That can feel lonely. Confusing. Like maybe you’re falling behind.
But hear me: you’re not behind. You’re not ahead. And you’re not lost. You’re just becoming.
So wherever you find yourself today—in a season of waiting, healing, stretching, or blooming—I hope you know this:
You are right on time.
You are already becoming.
And there is bliss and beauty to be found, even here.
I am right there in this journey with you.
xoxo, B
