To Demi, From Ryan

A personal site for my favorite 30 year old.

I created this little corner of the internet for one reason.
To remind you how loved, strong, and deeply appreciated you are. You're my best friend and I'm so lucky to know you.

Click here when you feel...

Pick the one that fits right now. You don’t have to explain it to anyone.

Whenever you don’t know where to put the heaviness, you can put it here for a moment.

Words for the days that feel like too much

You are not failing. You are carrying more than most people will ever see — and you’re still showing up. Read that again.
You don’t have to earn rest, love, or appreciation. You deserve them because you exist. Nothing can change that.
You are allowed to be tired and still be incredible. Both can be true at the same time. Your exhaustion is not a measure of your worth.
The way you love your kids, your friends, your people — it matters more than you know. You make the world better just by being in it.

You never have to carry it alone

If today is heavy, you don’t have to be “fine” with me. You can just be real, exactly as you are.

My life is better because of you.

Here's a small glimse into some of my favorite memories with you (click picture for full size).

Some songs that remind me of you

Mixtapes aren't a thing anymore, so I created a Spotify playlist with songs that remind me of you. I plan to continue to update this over time!

Tiny wins that still count (a lot)

Tap the ones you’ve done today. Yes, they absolutely count.
