I came home and cried tonight. If I’m being honest, I’m still crying. My sister is in town this week, visiting from North Carolina where she moved to start over again. Wednesdays are my weeknight with my daughter, so I suggested we have dinner. Let’s...
Being in debt fucking blows. If you’ve been there, you get it. You’ve got this constant heaviness hanging over you. I’ve been busting my ass double time trying to make everything happen, including asking for help a couple weeks ago to make my new...
I don’t consider myself super woo woo. I work with woo woo people. I’m not woo woo. And, I also know that I’m in a place where I need to grow. With that in mind, I’ve done a lot of seeking recently. This is where I landed – and I hope it...
