I am on a mission to help 47,000 people and their families never have to feel alone again! I’m passionate about helping those who feel forgotten to be seen and giving those who feel alone a supportive community!
We all know life can be tricky. If you’ve ever been through a challenging time, then you know what I mean. It is hard enough to go through challenges in life, but to go through those battles alone is almost unbearable.
In other words, no one should ever have to do life alone so welcome, I am glad you’re here!

How Do I Know This?
My life changed dramatically when my father passed away on December 21st, 2005. Although wonderful family and friends surrounded me, ultimately, I felt completely alone during this time.
My life’s mission is to bring light to the forgotten and help others live happier and more fulfilled life. Because you matter! We all want to feel that we are not invisible.
I suffer from anxiety, depression and PTSD, and all that goes with that. As a result, it wasn’t always easy to say it out loud and admit it. I have now learned how to embrace these as gifts. These things do not define me. However, they are a part of who I am, how I live my life, and the decisions I make. Something that used to make me feel ashamed now thrusts me forward. Coming to these conclusions, I now happily accept all the parts of myself and embrace them because they are a part of me.
We all come with baggage, regrets, failures and shortcomings because we all have a story. You are not alone. More importantly, we have all survived something, and we are all still standing because we are stronger than we think. We are so much more than we think we are, and together we are even more powerful!

Escaping Our Internal Cage
For years I felt that I was locked in a cage, trapped and unable to escape. I felt that life was happening to me and not for me. In other words, I felt that my dreams were always too big and too far-fetched to ever be attainable. I never felt that I was good enough to excel at anything. I was pretty shy and hid behind being a tomboy with a tough exterior, when the whole time I was this lost younger version of myself longing for acceptance and just to feel free.
One day, I found myself packing a bag and thinking about escaping my life and just running away. I would go to the local bus station and just buy a ticket to anywhere and try to chase some of these dreams but I couldn’t because my family meant everything to me. I didn’t realize that I could have both. I could be a mom, wife, sister, daughter and a woman with dreams.
What I learned that day
I started to realize that only I could get myself out of this cage I felt trapped in. As I was thinking this, I picked up a black wire decorative cage that I have and I realized that the cage could be unlocked from the inside. Therefore, I had the capability to free myself all along! Can you imagine how that made me feel? Why hadn’t I realized that before? I was terrified, yet relieved, because I didn’t need to wait on anyone else as I was the one that needed to want to live better. Of course I couldn’t do it alone but it had to start with me. I had to want it. And I finally did, more than anything. After all, I wanted to feel alive again and have a passion for living.
