It was the year 2003. I was in fourth grade. My dad had just recently started letting me say "crap". It was a privilege that was revoked within 24 hours because my sister and I literally said it in every sentence - even when it made zero sense given the context of the sentence.

How To Flip The Switch from "Mom" to "Wife" When The Lights Go Out...
I am a mom of three and the same cycle happens after every child that I have. I struggle to "flip the switch" from being a mom during the day and then somehow trying to be a sexy wife at night for my husband.

Overcoming Obsessive Thoughts
Image Retrieved From: The Full Helping https://www.thefullhelping.com/dedication-vs-obsession-personal-reflections/ I went through a period in my life where my thoughts became extremely obsessive.

Battling the Voices
"It's never going to happen to me." I guess I was always one of those people who thought that. I never thought I would become a drug addict. But I did. I never thought I would be homeless. But I was.
