I can't be fake like overnight parking is on my mind right now. I'm a human going through some thangs. So that's what I'm choosing to share. I learned in therapy that trauma can be remembered in your body even better than it is in your mind. Also, white privilege on the road is super real. Lastly, hi hello I'm starting a coffee brand. Random episode? Yes. Helpful? Hopefully.

It's not all about big numbers or lots of "likes". It's about loving your mission so much that you want the whole damn world to hear it. When you're determined to share your message with the masses, you do care about growth. I can't promise you the results... That's on you. I can, however, tell you exactly what I did to get myself where I am today. I believe in you to do with that what you will.. We are all waiting to hear your voice.

After Lee & I discussed our break up, I thought it would be helpful to hear from two people who have been together for 30 years, my sweet parents. They bring us through their journey together starting at a nightclub. We listen to how they've moved through difficult times, come to accept the other person's flaws and continue choosing each other every day. This is a *real* love story... imperfect & all.

Learn how having a deep passion for something can push you to your limits -like making 150 Youtube videos before making money- but ultimately, keep you going to achieve your goals and explore the world.
