I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine! A social marketing expert and psychologist by training who works in the public health field trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
All the world is my television and I like to provide commentary on it.

Relief Empty mind Word vomit Talk, talk, talk Find a spot of focus Tear at the seams No sewing kit No repairs Just outpour and flow The whiskey canteen overflows Emotions raw to the touch No easy path forward There never is Not should it be Earn that […]
Many people are black or white thinkers. They don’t like gray. They don’t do nuance. Others live completely in the gray zone. I, for one, live in the gray. More often than not, I’m comfortable living in the gray. I think such a framework has helped me move […]
