I have been sober for four years now. The more things change the more they stay the same. I never pictured what my life would look like being sober for this long. I was consumed in fear and self when I first started this sobriety journey. I was 23 when I made the decision to…

In this video I try and voice my thoughts around my career and the difficulties I have had. At the core of it all I want to truly care about what I do for my career. There are many different ways people can find purpose and fulfillment. While unemployed, I have come to realize how…

I am more aware of how I physically feel and why I may feel that way. I understand that I have a short social battery and sometimes less is more when it comes to socializing. I better understand the importance of connection and genuine relationships. I understand that being outside in nature can be a…
