I’ve promised I was going to record this podcast for months now, and I’ve always been too nervous to actually hit record. If you’ve followed me for a long time, you probably know pieces of my story.
What some of you guys may or may not know, is
that growing up my mom was in and out of prison a large majority of
my life. I wanted to talk about this in this podcast, because
even if you haven’t experienced a loved one going to prison, I
think most of us have at least one dysfunctional family member in
our life and can relate in some way. In today’s podcast, I
spend the first half sharing my story, and the second half talking
about ways I’ve learned to cope and move past a lot of the past
trauma I experienced as a child and hopefully it will help some of
you to hear about the tools I’ve used that have worked well.

PS -
I’m having a massive vulnerability hangover today sharing all these
details of my life, so….if I disappear off social media for the
next few hours that’s probably why. Be gentle with your
comments please <3

- It’s now been 4+ years since me or any of my brothers or sisters
(7 of us) have heard from my mom. We think she is living in
Australia, but nobody really knows. If anyone has a connection to
her or knows where she might be, just let her know I love her and
would love to hear from her again.
