Holding the Reins
Unfiltered stories, rooted in a life being lived
Welcome to Holding the Reins
Holding the Reins is a space for unfiltered stories rooted in a life being lived, where I write from within the real moments of my lived experiences as I navigate life's messy seasons.
If you have ever felt as though life keeps throwing you curveballs, I hope that my words, written with care and courage, will help you feel less alone and empower you to continue guiding your journey, even when life veers off the path you planned.
What You'll Find Here
First-person reflections from real life
Writing shaped by lived experiences
Stories that hold both strength and tenderness
Words for seasons that don’t yet have language
Insights that helped me survive the storms
About The Voice
I’m Krystal — a mother, a writer, and a woman learning how to stay present through hard seasons. Holding the Reins is where I put words to what it feels like to keep going, to stay rooted, and to tell the truth without softening it.
