MY STORY

While still a child, I had to take over adult tasks in my household as my mom battled addiction.

I cooked, I cleaned, I took care of my siblings, and I went to school.

I suffered trauma from being abandoned and bullied (in school), while also having a premature manic depressive diagnosis. I started coping with self-harm and isolation. That then progressed into drug use – anything that could help me escape. 

Things escalated quickly. I became a high school dropout by 16, gave birth to a stillborn child by 23, had my two oldest sons removed from my care at 27, and was a convicted felon, giving birth to my third child while handcuffed to a bed, by 29. 

(I also tried to get sober several times and failed.)

MY EPIPHANY

My oldest son’s father passed away from an overdose and I had a vision that if I did not get sober, I would also die,  leaving my children motherless.

I reached my recovery in 2016 and three years later, I gave birth for the fourth time, where I had the opportunity to make my baby’s health and mine a priority for the first time in my life.

Today, I’m transformed!

Despite all the pain, I’m so grateful for my story because I can identify with others and ultimately shine a light in your darkest places. I've been there, I've felt worthless, afraid, not good enough, undeserving of redemption and hopelessness

.

Through years of constant reframing work, inner child healing, and rebuilding my self-image, so far I have been able to achieve the results that I desire......

• My sobriety
• My soulmate and the perfect partner
• My and my fiance’s $1 million business
• My reunion with my best friend and business partner for Recovery Life Apparel
• My more than 230K followers on social media
• Media attention by means of news articles, interviews, and podcasts 

AND I'M JUST GETTING STARTED!

Remember that FEAR IS A LIE holding you back from the person you are intended to be and  that fear is a lie that YOU CAN dismantle and you can take YOUR POWER BACK.
