There’s something about the day after Christmas. We start to come down from the sugar highs, and the feel-good hormones released from gift-giving and receiving.

The picture you see is a screenshot off my phone as of 11pm last night. This is my reality. This is why I have spent the last 2 years healing. This is why I published a book. This is why I started this blog. This is why I started my podcast. This is my “WHY.”Continue reading “My Why”

They search for an easier way, so that others may follow their lead, and maybe get to where they want to be a little quicker. The Seekers. The ones that putContinue reading “The Seekers”

In this chapter of my book, THE CALCINATION OF A VOLATILE LIFE, I talk about the one you thought would work. The one that you could see for days and days into the future, and sharing your life with. The one that hurt you the most, but the hardest to forget. It’s hard…damn hard. ButContinue reading “Chapter 10: Divine Intervention”

In Chapter 9 of my book, THE CALCINATION OF A VOLATILE LIFE, I talk about bad decisions. They are going to happen. It’s just part of being human. But when you look back on it, you have to see how you were just dealing with a crisis the only way you knew how, at thatContinue reading “Chapter 9: Stop Beating Yourself Up”
