FOR THE HOMESTEAD

hey there, I'm jen

You can usually find me with my hands in the dirt or hanging out with my farm animals.  I’m all about telling it like it is, especially regarding my mental health. I believe sharing my journey of overcoming PTSD will help others who have experienced trauma and show that healing is possible.
