I’m a tough love self-help writer. I’m here to help you improve how you interact and communicate with people, speak to yourself, and establish steps for growth.
Today’s world is full of curated highlight reels and
over-saturated with life coaches who tell us how we should feel — but not how to realistically get there.
Life is full of pitfalls, and my version of happiness requires the really tough mental kind of hard work. The most vulnerable parts of my life have defined me — and have propelled me to my highest peaks.
