Hey guys! I hope you are having an amazing week. I wanted to share with you a funny story of mine. One that just makes you laugh, and go back to your teen years when you did dumb things! I was 19 years old, with a pretty new mustang. I used to go to a…

Life sure does have a way of taking you on wild adventures, doesn’t it? One day, you are eating steak, in a fancy restaurant, the next, you are wondering where you will get your next meal. I have always found it important to keep my positivity no matter what the situation truly is, but some…

Today was such an exciting milestone of a day for us! Today, we finally placed our first book, The Mirror Trilogy Book 1: Reflections of Love & Lies for sale on our website! It has taken almost 6 months to get it perfected to our liking! I am so excited to begin working on the…

Today was a strange day. Something feels like it is shifting in the air around me. I can sense it, even though I cannot explain it. Lately, things have been going wrong in ways that don’t seem accidental. Small disruptions. Unexpected setbacks. A quiet feeling that something bigger may be approaching. I can feel the…

But even in that darkness, something unexpected was being built inside of me. Not faith in the way people usually describe it.Not belief in a higher power swooping in to rescue me.But a different kind of faith, one that formed quietly, without words. Faith that I could endure.Faith that I could survive another night, another…

And now there is another layer to this conversation. My daughter has found faith. She speaks about it often. She tells me I need to believe. She says God protects us. She says God has a plan. God forgives. But who forgives him, for turning his cheek and not seeing what was happening to me,…

Today, my oldest child asked me a question. A question that brought so much anger from within me, within seconds. Anger I had been pushing down for three years and doing my best to contain. “Why do you not want my grandmother in your life? She raised you.” How do you explain to your child,…

Learning What “Foster Child” Meant As the door opened, a woman who looked familiar was standing on the other side of the door. I remembered her, she came to visit my family several times over the years. But I had no idea who she was. I just knew she was always sad, especially when she…

She’s toxic, right? That’s the story you’re telling everyone now… but let’s back up for a second. Was she toxic when she gave you her trust, completely and without hesitation? Was she toxic when she believed every word you said, even when her gut told her something wasn’t right? Was she toxic when she kept…

Hey guys! Good morning! It is an absolutely amazing day here in Palm Springs, CA. I am staring out into the mountains, with the beautiful white clouds gently forming above them. The sun is bright and the sky is blue, what else could you ask for in your Journey To Survival? I had an interesting…
