Your behavior is telling a story your mind hasn’t admitted yet.

What has one of your behaviors been trying to tell you?

16/07/2026

What if the behaviors you've always called your personality are actually survival strategies?

We all develop ways to protect ourselves. Sometimes that looks like control. Sometimes it's people-pleasing, overthinking, perfectionism, or always staying on guard.

But what if those patterns aren't who you are?

In Episode 3 of Unfiltered Butterfly, Mike, Nicole, and Sharla explore how our nervous system shapes the way we respond to life, relationships, and the world around us, and how understanding those patterns is the first step toward lasting healing.

This conversation is honest, insightful, and one that just might change the way you see yourself.

🎙️ Episode 3 is now LIVE!

Diagnosed with profound hearing loss at 18 months old.
Told my entire life there was no cure.

Yet my hearing improved anyway.

For decades, I believed my diagnosis defined my future. What changed wasn’t just my hearing. It was my identity.

The work I’ve done through Attracting Grace and my mentor, Michael E. Connor, transformed the way I experience myself and my life. It taught me that our identity isn’t fixed. When we change the identity we’ve been living from, we begin to change the patterns that shape our lives. Literally.

Emma Parker recently published a beautiful Medium article inspired by Michael E. Connor’s book, Identity Before Everything. If you’ve ever wondered why you keep repeating the same patterns, I think you’ll love it.

The link is in the comments.

If you’re curious about creating a new identity, DM me “IDENTITY.” I’d love to share what has changed my life. 🦋🤍

There was a time when I thought healing meant fixing myself.

I’ve learned that healing isn’t about becoming someone new.

It’s about turning toward the parts of yourself you’ve spent years trying to outrun…

The part that felt invisible.
The part that wasn’t enough.
The part that tried so hard.
The part that still carries pain.

Those parts don’t need more judgment.

They’ve carried enough.

They need love.

Today, I’m choosing to meet every version of myself with compassion instead of criticism.

If you needed this reminder today…

This is yours too. 🦋🤍

I’m realizing how much of my life was spent trying to earn peace.

Trying to understand more.
Control more.
Predict more.

I thought if I could just get everything “right,” I’d finally feel safe.

Lately, I’ve been practicing something different.

I’m paying more attention to who I’m becoming than what I’m accomplishing.

Trusting more than I predict.
Observing more than I react.
Choosing more than I chase.

It’s not about becoming perfect.

It’s about becoming more at peace with who I am.

Maybe peace isn’t something we earn.

Maybe it’s where we choose to begin.

As I continue building Nicole Grace Leadership Advisory, this is the question I keep coming back to, not just for myself, but for every leader:

What feels permanent in your life that may actually be ready to change?

I’d love to hear your thoughts below. 🤍

The strongest men aren’t the ones who never cry. They’re the ones who have the courage to heal.

Every father who chooses presence over pride, connection over control, and love over fear changes the trajectory of generations to come.

Here’s to the men rewriting what strength truly means.

Happy Father’s Day. ❤️

I spent too many years believing beauty existed somewhere in the future version of me.

These photos reminded me of something important:
I do not have to earn beauty.
I do not have to postpone confidence.
I do not have to wait to be visible.

I am on a health journey, but I am also on a self-love journey. Both matter. 🤍

And maybe that is what healing really is, learning to see yourself differently before the world gives you permission to.

Getting to capture these moments with my mom made it even more meaningful because so much of our journey together has been about healing, understanding, and learning to have the conversation beneath the conversation. 🦋

We are so excited to share that The Unfiltered Butterfly Podcast is launching soon, where we explore the conversations beneath the conversation: identity, healing, relationships, patterns, motherhood, daughterhood, and the stories shaping our lives.

If this speaks to you, we would love for you to join us. Sign up at unfilteredbutterfly.com to be the first to know our official launch date, get updates, and be part of this journey with us. 🤍

Huge thank you to of Soulful Portraits by Mayeluz for creating magic, making us feel comfortable, and reminding me that beauty does not wait for a destination. ✨
