Who am I? Sometimes this is a question I ask my many personalities. Scary, right? You just thought, "Did she just say that?". Yes, I did! I am in awe of the many moods we swing in and out of in any given day, week, HOUR, second...ha-ha. My moods sometimes catch me off-guard where I... Continue Reading →
Self-Care…much ado about EVERYthing
Let's talk self-care, the very thing I know the most about and yet have to remind myself to re-balance frequently. Self-care is not selfish. Self-care belongs at the very top of your list because if you are not caring for your SELF then you cannot care for anything or anyone else. My self-care is reading,... Continue Reading →
Overthinking – it kills creativity and worse
I have found myself intimidated by the idea of writing. I have so much to share, so much to say and starting dialogues prompted and ready to roll but then I overthink it. Instead of writing from my heart and my very busy head I sit and think about what my audience wants to hear... Continue Reading →
Crazy…really…wow
As I was sitting in the nail salon recently I overheard a woman in a pedicure chair talking to her nail tech about mental illness. At first blush her comments were somewhat entertaining until I realized her views and then I found myself shaking my head at the ignorance that was so blissful it was... Continue Reading →
Therapy…the shame in talking about talking
Why is it taboo to talk about therapy? What is the shame in our mental health? We talk about mammograms, menopause and colonoscopies without hesitation. It makes zero sense to me and that is why I do talk and about it and will talk about it. Mental Health therapy is no different than physical therapy... Continue Reading →

The voices inside my head
Got your attention? Well they certainly have mine. The voices in my head keep me awake all night and keep me company all day. Not certifiably crazy, certifiably driven! Yes, that is right...driven. My mind is always going, always thinking, always learning, always processing 24/7. It can be exhausting at times as relaxation does not... Continue Reading →
What It’s Like…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qA1nGPM9yHA The song by Everlast always serves as a reminder of why I have learned to embrace my journey instead of hide it. I have been through more than the average bear in 48 years and some of those tales are not ones you put on BLAST! But it has made me WHO I am... Continue Reading →
Organization or Obsession?
I am a self-described organized person but some of that as I define as organized can feel obsessive. I drive myself crazy with rules that I create for myself about how to live my life and disguise those as "organization". Don't get me wrong organization is key to a successful life. Everything has to have... Continue Reading →
To write or not to write…
To write or not to write that is the question or is it? I write to relieve my brain, give my thoughts freedom and to pass along those things that I think can bring value to those around me. I am enjoying this journey and thought that today the process deserved some understanding of the... Continue Reading →
