Here we go! This is the first of the 8-part series that I'm launching in conjunction with what I did towards the end of last year. I'm super excited with what's happening and what has already happened, but I first need to go back to the beginning of the year and see what I said... Continue Reading →
You know, I've talked about this on a number of occasions. How to veer and steer clear of negative human beings, even if they're your family. This is one of the toughest decisions any human being can make. Did I think I would ever have to make a decision like this? Not in a million... Continue Reading →
I went to my mother's Facebook page to check on her health and well-being recently. After the 2013 fallout, my mother and I haven't spoken on video or by voice in half-a-decade. Regrets? Absolutely not. It takes two to tango. However, the health of my mother is always important. Her first post was of my... Continue Reading →
So, because my blog, podcasts, Instagram and other means of social media is gaining a lot of momentum, I think it's time to finally introduce myself on a scale no one ever has. Mother/Father broke up in 97. Two step mothers and three elementary schools in a one year period. Father dropped my siblings and... Continue Reading →

Now that I know my future and I've finally let go of the past, I can focus on one of the most exciting times and live ahead. This has been my dream - to teach everywhere, speak... Continue Reading →
In the picture was Thanksgiving holidays in 2007. Yes, I was 19-years-old, taking classes at college and not having a goal in mind whatsoever. I did make up my mind in terms of Dental Hygiene (which later failed), but what did I truly want? It's hard to say going back, but if I had been... Continue Reading →
First time I did a Tough Mudder in Melbourne, Australia, I was stoked. I mean I remember the long drive there, the cool temperatures, the enthusiasts at a pit-stop along the way wearing leggings. I mean the build up was insane. My best friend, Joy, was just driving casually; meanwhile, the energy going through my... Continue Reading →
“Like many people, I want to avoid being the dark cloud in other people’s lives, so I pretend things are sunny, even when they are obviously not. So I keep things light, or at surface level. I want to talk about other people. I want to focus on other people’s challenges because focusing on my... Continue Reading →
Wonderful question came in today from a friend in Japan asking something very deep - something I somewhat covered in my last podcast. So, here are the questions. Where do you get your strength from? I lived in Australia for one year. I thought I was ostricized by society. There were days I thought I... Continue Reading →
