Teaching self defense, often laughing while doing it, giving back in that arena, helped because it filled me with hope. I will still share that passion in some capacity, whether online or through my music!

Weekly Minute, Road To Success
The road to our version of success, our dream(s), goals is sometimes just shit. It’s hard. It’s boring. It can be tedious but it’s also exciting, invigorating and unexpected. It will be paved with mountains and valleys but as long as you pave it with possibility, who cares?
Weekly Minute, “Come The Fuck Out”
I do find comfort in the regular parts of my life. I do sometimes wish I didn’t have this drive, this creator inside me but I do. She’s screaming to come the fuck out!
To The Man In Meijer Square
Now, I had been a very vocal kid. I would introduce myself to people and rarely shied away from someone unless they made me feel uncomfortable. But now, in this moment, I was afraid.
International Women’s Day
**This is not a post about sexuality, gender but just a snapshot of a feeling, at the time of this IG post in March, 2020 I used to 'hate' being a girl. As a child, I used to feel and look much more like Mowgli from the Jungle Book but as I age, I’ve wanted … Continue reading International Women’s Day
Setting Intentions 2022
I grew up being aware how strong energy could be when I would focus on something, POSITIVE or NEGATIVE. Whether it was through the form of prayer, meditation, setting an intention. I grew up somewhat religious and though I still consider myself faith based. I do not use religion, certain teachings to admonish myself or … Continue reading Setting Intentions 2022

The Night He Died and Saved My Life, Part 3 of 3
The funeral home seemed eerily quiet the night of the visitation, yet, bursting with family, friends, lot of long hair and black leather jackets. And some of the guys who attended, Aaron had skirmishes with but I think this event shook a lot of them. It was overwhelming that so many came out to support … Continue reading The Night He Died and Saved My Life, Part 3 of 3
The Night He Died and Saved My Life, Part Two (of Three)
"I saw myself in my car, choosing to go home the previous night and I instantly felt as if, his voice saved my life somehow or saved me from injury, covering me in chills. I had so many thoughts and feelings holding me to that chair but I wanted to shoot through the ceiling."
The Night He Died and Saved My Life – Part One (of Three)
One might think some of the circumstances in this story, can't be true or some part was just a coincidence. It does in fact feel like a dream, at times a bad dream but everything written here, is true and to the best of my ability to remember the facts. And though tragic, it is … Continue reading The Night He Died and Saved My Life – Part One (of Three)

Four Leaf Clovers and…
I grew up in a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio. From an early age, I had a sense, the explanation of life, this world, was not covering everything. Of course, I was somewhat aware of science and creation, every explanation out there, depending on varying facts or beliefs. As some kids do, I asked my Mom, … Continue reading Four Leaf Clovers and…
Self Pity by DH Lawrence
I could read this poem over and over, staring at it all day... This may be familiar to those that enjoyed the film G.I.Jane. The Master Chief as he was called in the film, brilliantly played by Viggo Mortensen, often read from a book of DH Lawrence poems. At the end of the film he … Continue reading Self Pity by DH Lawrence
