When Abuse Makes You Question Yourself
There comes a time in healing where the pain isn’t loud anymore- it’s confusing. It leaves you sitting with a heavy question: Am I doing something to cause this? I’ve asked myself this question more times that I can count during my lifetime. After being on the receiving end of emotional and verbal abuse for…
Beauty and the Beast
This movie is such a beautiful love story, though it didn’t start out that way. It’s a true depiction of real life unfolding through a fantasy film meant for children who may not yet understand its depth, and adults who grow to treasure it more with time. From the very beginning, Belle was sure of…
Create A Four Year Recap of Your Life

The Root of Relational Problems
When a person lacks emotional availability, affection, warmth, attunement, intentional intimacy, desire, pursuit, validation, emotional safety, and reciprocity. There will be tension in any relationship. Why? They are emotionally distant, disengaged, and not attuned to your inner self. They lack physical touch, tenderness, and reassurance. They fail to notice you, your appearance, your efforts, your…

Stop Casually Dating
As I’m leaving Kroger, I see a mother and father exchange – their child, who can’t be more than about 6 months old, if that. I’m reminded how men and women often—too often—hook up. They do so with no real intentions, stability, or future goals in mind. It’s all for a good time. Well, that…
Conscious vs Subconscious
Conscious Mind vs Subconscious Mind Do you believe a “thought” comes before a “feeling”? As I think about it I believe we are wired to think a certain way based off how something has made us feel. So feeling before thought for me. Therefore as science states our subconscious mind is our powerhouse. It stores…

Are you managing your emotions well or are they managing you?
As a communicator, mentor, and coach I’ve found similarities in situations that have nothing to do with the other leading back to one root cause; emotions.

The Power of Truth: Communion
It’s been over 25 years since I took communion. Not because I didn’t want to or didn’t know my scripture but because as an active Jehovah Witness goer I was told only the people who have a heavenly hope is supposed to partake. Well I know that’s not true. Jesus told his followers to do…
