Here it is. I’m a storyteller. A doodler. An entertainer. I love an audience. I love inspiring, connecting, and helping folks feel less alone or less crazy. I especially love making people laugh. There’s nothing quite like getting a surprise cackle or belly laugh outta’ someone. One of those authentic, unexpected, unfiltered laughs. Eff you, […]

I am 33 years old and I’m learning how to be an adult. As a kid, I rarely pushed through discomfort. My parents wanted a better life for me than what they had so they gave me all the things I could ever want. For this, I’m eternally grateful. Like anything in life, too much […]

Over the last five and a half years, I’ve worked to remove distractions / baggage / stagnant energy / old beliefs and focused on learning to use my intuition. That tiny, raspy whisper has become louder and easier to decipher. Rather than occasionally hearing it, I have more of an ongoing conversation with this sense […]

Sometimes I take things too literally. I’ll hear a statement like “your thoughts and words become your reality” and take it so seriously that I’ll become a hyper-vigilant micro-manager of my thoughts and words and actions. I’ll run everything through a filter. I’ll always be “on.” To an extent, this awareness can be helpful in […]
