Hello, I'm Alet, is a blog that gives you glimpses into my story
I chose the name, out of sheer desperation to show up and allow myself to be vulnerable. Real, raw, authentic vulnerability!
Thankfully my story isn't just about me - in fact, I am not even the main character, Christ who lives in me and speaks through me, fuels my hopes and dreams. He comforts me when I'm down in the dumps and helps me navigate life.
My story is also weaved into the stories of my boys, Logan and Oliver. Although I believe it is their privilege to share their stories, I try to mark key events and milestone. And every now and then I indulge myself!
When I am not blogging over here, I'm available on Instagram or Twitter.
Below are the key events in my life, that have shaped who I am today. Tales about my study ventures, weight loss battles and career ambitions are other central themes in my life.
