I can’t believe I’m finally typing these words – I have wanted to share this news for months. As I thought about how to share what I have been experiencing, I became paralyzed about doing it the exact, perfect way - how to express all of my total bliss and yet all this fear too?

I finally realized that I can’t worry about making being ME comfortable for everybody else, I have to share this journey MY WAY: with honesty, vulnerability, love and an open heart.

The truth is, I am overwhelmed with love, joy and happiness about our baby. It’s a total miracle that I’m growing a human and my husband and I couldn’t be more thrilled.

But, I have also had an incredibly difficult spring and summer with serious nausea, exhaustion, constant sickness and all the awful symptoms no one wants to really talk about when sharing the “perfect blessed journey” of pregnancy.

I was so afraid that if I shared that part (the difficulty of flying and performing while puking in green rooms and airplanes) that I’d seem ungrateful somehow when I’m actually crazy full of gratitude - I’m just HUMAN. Human emotions are complex.

We can feel more than one thing at once you know? We can hold both love and wonder and aw and joy, but also frustration and sickness and fear and darker stuff too and it’s normal! So anyway, that’s where I’m at my loves.

With all the mystery and wonder around this, one thing that has been abundantly clear to me: this little unbelievable soul that I haven’t even met yet is going to be my biggest teacher in the world and I cannot wait to learn.

I love you all so much, and I promise to continue to share as much of this process with you as I can. Xoxoxox, a totally happy, exhausted, not so nauseous today Rach.

I never posted about this and i don’t know why. Last year i was honored with the impact award from the #gracieawards and Broadcast Music Inc. for my music making a positive impact on society. It was such a big deal but i didn’t allow myself to really own it.

I walked on to the podium, accepted it, cried on stage, then put it on my piano and forgot about it. Then i dream about bigger awards. But we can all agree that’s totally insane right?

To want more in the future and think something bigger will make us happy when we aren’t even happy with the goals we already achieved!! When i catch myself out of the present moment, part of how I’ve been healing is through deep gratitude for the amazing blessings i already have.

If you don’t have a gratitude practice already try it - just start small and every night write three things that you did well that day, and three things (small or big) that you’re grateful for. Maybe if you feel comfortable share one below.

Here’s mine for the day - winning an award for making a positive impact on society. What an honor that i totally ignored. 🤦🏼‍♀️ i love you all very much and i promise to write less in my captions. Haha

Tune in to Good Morning America tomorrow 8am - I'm really proud and grateful to have the chance to discuss body image issues that pregnancy (with all its highs and lows) can bring up with the lovely Kayna.

Cool, cool. just still real pregnant over here..... but thought I’d share what I’ve been up to in this endless waiting period. I’ve been SUUUUPER productive - Here's some of what I’ve gotten into!

Sometimes i feel pressure to only show this confident, bright smiling side of me, but I battle with insecurities and not feeling good enough too.

I want to do a better job of showing my behind the scenes and to be REAL about the moments when i beat myself up, compare myself, and cry to my friends. Because it’s normal. Because I’m human!
