Can I have a truth moment? After my recent interview (if you haven’t seen it yet, check it out here), I began to question if I was living my truth. It’s one thing to encourage others to do right, but it’s another thing to live it yourself (I told you all from the start, I’m not there yet, LOL).

Life can be such a world wind at times, it starts out calm and then it seems to spiral out of control fast. You go from living your best life to learning about a layoff, infertility issues, family sickness, or divorce.
