THE STORIES WE CARRY | Meet Jarrah

I created this series because we meet women every day without knowing the journeys behind who they are — what they’ve overcome, accomplished, sacrificed, built, or are still becoming.

The jewelry we wear may be visible, but the stories we carry often aren’t. The Stories We Carry celebrates the woman, her journey, and everything that has shaped who she is today.

This is Jarrah’s story, in her own words.

✨ MY STORY

Coming from an incredibly small town in the Adirondacks I spent most of my days daydreaming while my parents were out chasing theirs!

I feel like I never really knew what I wanted to “be” when I grew up but I knew what I loved and enjoyed. But I struggled with confidence for as long as I can remember, along with being quite shy.

It took me years to overcome many silent mental battles I had faced too, which I really don’t share with anyone. I worked on gaining confidence in who I am, quirks and all, and honestly have just been on a journey of finding myself and becoming confident in who I am.

Getting closer to God, becoming a dog mom to the best fur baby, practicing positive self-care regimes, and falling in love with fitness, are the four reasons I’ve become my happiest self. And with that came opportunity and courage to chase my dreams.

I’m thankful and grateful for every day and every room I’ve been in that little me would be proud of!

The journey to happiness will be never ending. But I can tell you with each year I only find more joy!

And I can’t wait to see where life takes me!
