Always being the go to person in the family and friends circle for various reasons, I became lost in meeting my own needs. Then tragedy and trauma struck, causing my whole world to crumble. I'm once again trying to rebuild through pain and grief. To become more empowered, strengthened, and self reliant. I joined AI Advantage so that I can obtain the clarity I need to move forward with a personal dream. To create something more powerful than fear, to teach my children by example, that no matter the struggles life will throw at you, you can always rebuild and reinvent yourself, stronger, more powerful and maybe even better in some ways. Life's lessons aren't always the easiest but if God brought you to it, he'll lead you through it!

My biggest win today… I think I finally understood that my “weird” isn’t something to fix. It’s the part of me that makes everything I create feel alive. And I want to start trusting that more.
