Welcome to the Uncensored and Raw side

You know me for the spiritual insights I share, but my world, and this blog, are so much more than just that. Today, I'm bringing you a side of me that's unfiltered, unafraid, and completely raw. This is my truth, spoken without a censor, and it's time to open up this space even wider to all of who I am. Prepare for an honest look into my reality.

Let's be brutally honest: my depression, this soul-crushing loneliness that haunts even my best days, it’s not some random affliction. It’s a direct consequence of my own fucked-up choices, specifically, my addiction. My oldest son is 16 now, and I practically lost him when he was 8. Eight years. Eight years gone because of me. This isn’t just 'sadness'; it feels like it’s literally killing me, leaving me breathless, suffocated by regret, rage, and a desperate, aching longing for time I can’t get back.

This pain goes deeper than words can touch, and the shame has made me feel utterly ugly, inside and out. It’s a constant whisper that tells me I deserve every bit of this anguish. But I can't keep letting it fester in the dark. The path forward from this kind of wreckage? It’s not pretty. It’s fucking hard. It means dragging myself through the ugliest parts of my past, facing every single agonizing choice I made, and feeling every bit of the gut-wrenching pain.

But I’m doing it. I’m pulling it all out into the light, not to wallow, but to strip the power from this pain. I am not a victim of my past, and it sure as hell doesn't define me. I've been through too much, clawed my way out of too many hells, to believe that this is where my story ends. I know, firsthand, there is always light on the other side of any fears we face.

For too long, my life was dictated by being afraid of the unknown, and that fear slowly turned into pure disgust with myself. I got sick of who I was. Now, I'm on a path forward driven by one undeniable motivation: to prove to MYSELF the exact opposite of everything I’ve ever thought, felt, and believed about myself. And today, holy shit, I felt a rush of all kinds of fucked up feelings that slammed into me and transformed into pure power.

Fuck being afraid of the unknown. I was ambushed with an overwhelming desire today – an absolute hunger – to want to know. I want answers. I'm tired of living in fear.

Learning to love and live with myself

  Lately, I've been deep in the trenches of change, growth, and the beautiful, painful art of letting go. Especially as a single mom of two (out of three!) navigating a full-time job, and taking care of everyone around me! every single transition, for me, comes with its own unique set of challenges and emotions and It's been tough, raw, and sometimes downright exhausting.  Some days, the weight feels unbearable, and the tears flow freely. But then, something shifts. Maybe it's a sunrise, a song, or a sweet note from one of my children. It's in those tiny moments that I remember I'm not just struggling; I'm building incredible resilience. I'm learning to carry both my burdens and my blessings with a grace I never knew I possessed.  This isn't just survival; it's an active process of becoming. I'm sad for what's lost, happy for what's blossoming, and fiercely hopeful for who I'm growing into, one challenging, beautiful day at a time. Th...

a powerful moment of re-connection and readiness

Image
  For so many years, my spirit was a parched landscape, barren and cracked under a relentless sun. It was a wilderness within, where thorny vines of habit choked out the vibrant life that longed to flourish. The weight of that arid past still settles over me like a heavy fog, bringing with it the deep sorrow of a polluted spring, its waters turned bitter by my own choices. And there's the shadow that falls across my own reflection, born from the detritus I allowed to accumulate. Yet, even in that desolate stretch, the earth has slowly begun to stir. For the past few years, I've been tending to this inner terrain. It hasn't been a steady bloom; there have been seasons of harsh winds and chilling frosts, moments where the old dryness creeps back in. But even as the skies weep, something profound has shifted. I've been reaching towards the vast expanse above, my pleas rising like smoke signals to the heavens, asking for the gentle rain of clarity and the firm ground to sta...

Walking the Narrow Path: Love, Addiction, and Divine Guidance

Image
There are battles we choose, and then there are battles that choose us. For mothers, especially, the well-being of our children dictates the very landscape of our lives. My journey has been one marked by profound challenges, but also by incredible grace and unwavering faith. A few years ago, I made an agonizing decision born of desperation and deep love: I called Child Protective Services. It was a choice that saved my children's lives, extracting them from chaos and exposure to addiction. My own healing took three months in a residential treatment followed by nine months in a sober living program. This choice was a testament to surrender and the relentless pursuit of light. Today, I live a beautiful life, I have custody of two of my kids and I'm raising them on my own. Yet, the shadow of addiction, through their father, remains. He's caught in his own struggle, and his illness often eclipses his capacity to be a safe influence. This is where the spiritual battle intensifie...
