Honestly – 2020
It’s really quite awkward to say this, but I’ve had a major breakthrough about myself and my life this year. Life truly is about the suffering and how we conquer or fall apart. Life isn’t purely hell, it’s a huge challenge. MAJOR. I’m finally starting to feel like I’m NOT the sum of my problems.…

Resilience for an Upcoming New Year
Let’s be honest with ourselves, this year has been challenging since the Covid-19 virus began. None of us are quite unchanged from the process. We all know who we are.

He and Ashleigh had a child together, Benjamin. Benjamin was in Children’s Hospital and had two different heart surgeries, was born premature,…

Racism, The Threat Rages On….
“I Can’t Breathe…” George Floyd said these words before Minneapolis police officers on duty choked him and watched on without assist. Jacob Blake was shot seven times in the back in front of his wife and three children. Breonna Taylor was shot and killed where no ambulance was available to aid her in the five…

Life IS Full of Surprises
I left one of my jobs in a bad way, many years ago. I wanted to tell my hotel boss this when I eventually sit down for my annual review. I suffered, badly. My ex husband was at this point in time a horrible father. He’d sleep, keep the doorknobs to the bedrooms tied together…
