During the week leading up to Christmas, I seriously wish I had a dollar for every time someone said the following to me because I would have been able to pay off my student loans. “How are you able to stay so positive/happy/jolly with all of this going on?” You have to understand the amount

Over the last five to six years, I’ve put a lot of time into developing insight. After seeing how a three-year toxic relationship unfolded and almost led to my untimely demise, I knew there was work to be done. With that being said, I’ve been in countless therapy sessions, had hundreds of deep conversations with

This past semester I was blessed with the opportunity to teach a college course called “Psychology as a Profession and Practice.” (I know. They trust me with teaching the next generation of bright minds. Shocker, right?) I essentially teach psychology majors about specific careers in the field and how to obtain those positions.

You ever have one of those days where you wake up and you just want to try something different? I woke up a little bit earlier than I anticipated and reflected a bit on how I wanted my day to go. I had a meeting with a colleague in about two hours. My colleague lived

I’ll be honest. I really don’t want to write this, but I know it will help me once I do. The one year anniversary of my dad’s passing quickly approaches. Of all days too, he passed away on Halloween last year. It crept up in my mind going back to August. Halloween decorations slowly pushed

Howdy, y’all! It’s been a few weeks. My New Year’s resolution to post at least once a week has obviously gone out the window. Sadly, this time was due to lack of time.
