The Other Side of Chaos – a space where life’s challenges, triumphs, and beautiful messes are celebrated with honesty and heart. I’m Kristin, the voice behind this blog, and I’m thrilled you’re here.

Who Am I?

I’m a mom, wife, aspiring author, and life enthusiast. My journey has been anything but straightforward. Several things have shaped my path, some of them being emotional trauma, a 13-year marriage to someone with bipolar disorder, and finding the love of my life. This list is not all-inclusive, there’s so much more. These experiences helped me grow as a mother, friend, and individual. Sharing stories about resilience and hope is my way of connecting with others.

My Passions

Writing gives me a chance to express myself and connect with the world. I’m working on books that explore relationships, resilience, and the power of new beginnings. Beading is another creative outlet that brings peace to my hectic days. What started as a family hobby has become a cherished part of my life.

Spending time with my family and exploring nature fills my heart with joy. I also love diving into books that inspire and challenge me. Personal growth is important to me, and I believe in celebrating even the smallest victories.

Welcome to The Other Side of Chaos, a space where connection, reflection, and inspiration guide the path to healing and personal growth. My name is Kenzie, and this blog is my story—a story of survival, transformation, and discovering the beauty of life after chaos.

Life hasn’t always been kind. There were moments when the weight of the chaos felt impossible to bear, times when I questioned my strength and purpose. But through the fire, I found clarity. Through the storms, I discovered resilience. And on The Other Side of Chaos, I built a life filled with love, hope, and meaning.

Living Through the Chaos

For years, I lived in the midst of emotional turmoil—navigating the challenges of marriage to someone with a mental health diagnosis, raising children, and confronting my own trauma. There were days when the chaos consumed me, and nights when I doubted whether I could continue.

I know I’m not alone in feeling this way. Chaos touches us all in some form, whether it’s mental, emotional, or physical. But I want you to know that chaos doesn’t define us—it’s just one chapter in our story.

Finding the Turning Point on The Other Side of Chaos

Chaos isn’t the end of the story. At my lowest point, I realized that breaking down wasn’t a failure—it was the beginning of transformation.

Piece by piece, I started to rebuild. I found solace in writing, creativity, and the unwavering support of those who stood by me. Step by step, I moved closer to peace, closer to myself, and eventually, closer to the love of my life—a man who sees me for who I truly am and helps me continue this journey of growth.

That turning point wasn’t just about survival—it was about rediscovering my purpose and embracing the life I was meant to live.
