Life Changes So Fast

Hey Guys! It has been over a year since I last posted on here and for that I am truly sorry. Time sure has flown and wow has things changed. Major life changes at that. I hope all is well with everyone and I would love to hear back from you all about how life has been. With that let's get to the updates because there have been LOADS of changes in my life.


  • One life change is that I have completed my Peer Specialist certification! This was months ago and this is something I will have to get into what all of that is about later in another post! 



  • I have finally finished college with my ASL Interpreting Bachelors degree. I will technically graduate this coming month (July) but I finished in March. It was a long and difficult journey and I have learned so much about myself during this journey also. I am super happy to be done and to start with the next chapter of my life. 



  • The biggest life change and best of all is my husband and I welcomed a little girl on April 8th. If you remember I had a post about Endometriosis "Fight like a girl"  posted on March 16, 2018. I will do another post soon to talk more about endometriosis but one thing to mention now is that Endo affects fertility. We were definitely surprised and are beyond blessed to have our sweet daughter. I can say that there will be more posts related to her; especially being a mom with anxiety/depression. 


I am truly sorry it has been so long since I posted. I am hoping (Fingers crossed) I can get back on track and post more often! Just stick with me!

Embracing Imperfection ~ Scars

There are many different posts I can make about "Embracing Imperfection" that's why I added a part to the title regarding this specific post Scars . We all can recognize what an external scar on the skin is; we've all fallen a few times and gotten a scrape that turns into a scar, in some cases the scar fades over time and in other cases they don't. But no-one really takes into account our internal scarring...why is that? Now I don't mean literally inside our body like scar tissue from a surgery, I mean our emotional scarring. The scarring that is so evidently present to us but no-one else sees it. If you take a look at the definition of a scar (just a scar in general) it, of course goes over other details but it also says that it is the process of wound repair and that it is a natural occurrence in the healing process . Let me repeat this...it is the process of wound repair and a natural occurrence in the healing process. What is the difference in that defi...

My Story Begins

My story is one that people around my community do not know, in fact the majority of even my friends are unaware. This is my way of getting this out, my way of letting people know and understand, and to Share the Glass Slipper ! There were times in high school that probably would have been a lot smoother had the teachers, staff, and students knew why I was the way I was. They didn't understand why I would prefer to have my nose in a book than to communicate with my classmates. This is my story, the one that has been told to very few people, aside from the strangers in my Washington DC presentation. From the time I was born until I was almost four I lived with my biological mother. During this time my 'first step-father' and mother moved me and my sisters from Alabama to Mississippi, away from my Father. My story begins, however, when my mother and 'first step-father' divorced and she moved in with another man. So now you ask what happened? During a visitation wit...

Perspective: "Some see a weed, others see a wish"

We all know the saying about whether the glass is half full or half empty and we are always told to look at things from other perspectives. Well, that's exactly what this blog post will be about. This world is full of evil and evil-doers and while I wish all of these bad things would never occur they do,  keep in mind while reading this I am not saying it's something that should be accepted, I'm simply talking about my personally perspective about MY situation and about general situations. I've learned that by changing your perspective, your life changes. You become happier and the small failures don't become overwhelming to you as they would have before. It doesn't make life perfect and it won't mean you won't have bad times or be depressed at times, but it does a lot more than people give it credit for. Theres a quote that comes up a lot that says "If you don't like something change it; if you can't change it, change the way you look at ...
