I'm a single mom of four (2 boys and 2 girls). I have survived everything from divorce, DCS involvement, substance abuse and self harm addiction, DV, abduction and human trafficking along with many assaults and stigmas. I've battled SMI diagnosis, have had multiple near death experiences and have battled homelessness and addiction during pregnancy. I know what it is like to have to face living life without somebody you thought you could never live without. I've been consumed by grief and despair. I'm now happy to be able to have the opportunity to let you know that It Does Get Better! Our Struggles Can Become Our Strengths ! My experiences have fueled my need to educate myself to recover my life and through this journey I have discovered the deep passion I have for helping others recover their lives as well! We listen to each other best! The best is yet to come, and I'm happy to help you get there!
