Someday you’ll wish you’d said yes.

Fear says wait.
Death says don’t.

The gap between those two voices is where life actually happens.

#WithoutFear #MementoVivere #SayYesNow #Live #Grief #Courage

On December 2 I’ll be live on Twitch for 24 hours straight talking about life, death, grief, & everything in between. I’m raising funds for the National Home Funeral Alliance & would love your support. Come hang out, keep me awake, or just vibe in the chat. twitch.tv/creepydeathgirl

You only die once. Live like it.

Every risk I take is a rebellion against regret.
Every time I say yes when fear says no, I reclaim a little more of my life.

We don’t get another chance to be this alive.

#WithoutFear #YouOnlyDieOnce #MementoVivere #TakeTheRisk #DoItNow

You’ve done harder things than this.

I used to think bravery meant not being scared.

Now I know it’s standing inside the fear and remembering your own strength. Growth isn’t gentle. But it’s worth it.

I almost didn’t climb this mountain. I told myself I was too afraid, too out of shape. Then I remembered who I am. Fear is a teacher, not a master.

What Does "No Regrets" Really Mean?

Regret isn’t weakness—it’s proof you lived boldly, chose deeply, and risked being real.

#FearlessFriday #LiveBoldly

Closing the mouth after death helps restore natural dignity to the face, and its easier than you may think. Using a scarf, ribbon, or cloth gently tied under the chin, this simple step supports the jaw and soft tissues as the body relaxes. #death #dying #labubu #labuburial #homecare #eol #endoflife

You Don’t Have to Leave a Legacy

Real legacy isn’t branding. It’s intimacy. It’s what those closest to you carry—not what the world applauds.
