Are you apologizing for your success?
When did it become so normal to apologize for our success? Frankly, we apologize for entirely too much. So much so that the value of the words “I’m sorry” doesn’t really hold much merit in a lot of situations.

Real Security
Security. What does it really mean to you? Have you ever thought about it? Where does it come from? How do we create it? Or can we truly ever have it? There are a lot of questions posed by this word that many have never taken the time to think about before. Sometimes...
Break Yourself Free
Mastering others is strength, mastering yourself is true power. -Lao Tzo I learned a few years ago that the moment I stopped trying to "force" anything with anyone else and focused on mastering myself and only myself that everything... shifted. And I mean, everything....
from me to you
I started writing these pages long before I knew what my life really could be. Maybe I’ve written it into existence, maybe I haven’t…either way this is a collection of my life. All of the stages and everything along the way. Thank you for following along.
