With so much controversy surrounding Covid-19, I am choosing to play it safe. Being immune compromised it only make sense. I don't understand people screaming about wearing masks. It's not just for yourself, it's also to protect people like me. Though it makes me sad that I had to cancel vacations to Orlando, Italy, and … Continue reading Playing it safe
Here are two new ones for bad break ups. Hope all is well with everyone. Sending love ❤ "It's the same doubt, the same dream, it's the same sabotage, cause I'm the enemy. It's the same night, same day, it's the same parasite feeding on the betrayed." ~ Lyrics from Perfectly Flawed by Otep You … Continue reading Bad Relationships
I am releasing pain, betrayal and abandonment from

Looking back on things that troubled me through life. ADD, sexual assault, depression, cancer battles, giving up on a healthy lifestyle, even being shamed for being a stay at home mom. Now that I am older I realize they empowered me.
During the past few weeks I have had my strength tested several times. The #metoo campaign brought very vivid memories flooding back. One night my boyfriend woke me from a nightmare. Apparently I was kicking violently in my sleep. I think he was grateful I was laying on my back and kicking up instead of … Continue reading Strength
Women are beautiful strong creatures, but so many feel inadequate and lack self confidence. We are powerful warriors, and yet we allow ourselves to be controlled. We tear each other down instead of lifting each other up. Take control of your life and find your power. Together we are a Sisterhood and a Tribe. Together … Continue reading Empowering Women
