I know each one of us experience pain or stress in our lives. Some of us struggle with our own thoughts. We ask ourselves where our life is leading us, are we doing the right thing? Are you making the right choices? Where will you be in the next few years? We put a lot on our plate; we worry ourselves, and I know life can get a bit hectic and overwhelming, but I’m here to tell you everything will be okay.

Let’s face it social media has been a huge turning point for the 21st century.

With a platform filled with perfect bodies, gym enthusiast, vegan eaters, and travel bloggers; I must admit it's hard to not feel you’re not living to your full potential, including myself! We all have our insecurities some of us can admit to it or just keep it to ourselves.

Part of me creating this blog was driven by my experiences both positives and negatives. Whether it relates to relationships, family systems, stigmatism, trauma. I can go on & on. I’ve had my fair share of growing up in a vicious cycle of cynicism. It took so many years for me to become empathetic. I didn’t always care about other’s feelings; I didn’t always try my best to be truthful because I wasn’t always comfortable in my skin. I treated those around me with the same pain that was inflicted on me because I thought it was just to do that.

To some, casual sex can be morally wrong; while with others, they can consider it normal and harmless.

Education contributes to human capital which includes cognitive development, character development, knowledge, critical thinking, and problem-solving. Adults with higher levels of education are less likely to engage in risky behaviors, such as smoking and drinking and have healthy behaviors relating to diet and exercise

Believe it or not, the relationships you’ve watched or built throughout your childhood impacts your adulthood and your decision-making skills. The definition of toxic comes from a negative cognition and seen as poisonous or unhealthy. What if I flipped that & told you it should be seen from a level of empathy? Changes the perspective, right?

Family is such an important and huge influence in any individual’s life. Family history plays a tremendous role in development as a child leading into adulthood. Your parents parenting style, norms, generational cycles, coping skills, & family roles are learned through childhood and at times mimicked through adult hood. For the purpose of this post because it would be extremely extensive to discuss all topics, I would like to focus particularly on parenting style.

Our book will leave you in suspense, and keep you reading until the end. As we publicly speak about every secret in our lives chapter to chapter and what it was like growing up with two neglectful parents, being forced to grow up at an early age and fend for ourselves.
