What a wild week…

Blog Post #1. I can’t believe I am doing this. Blogging. I always wanted to write a Blog but never felt I had anything important to say. Over the past 3 years, I have continually surprised myself. I think many people have many great things to say but are afraid of saying what’s on their minds. My mission is to change that, one post, one podcast, one action at a time. But let me tell you— “advocatin’ ain’t easy.” My anxiety has been through the rooooof!

So how has your anxiety been? I hope better than mine. I have always thought about Blogging, but I’ll keep it short today. We have finally launched our trailer for DEFIANT, and it’s been nothing but worries central. Did it sound ok? Did we get out messages across? Will people be willing to listen and go on a mental health discovery with me? Ha- NO IDEA. But hey, it’s out and now it’s time to record our first few episodes.

But what am I really trying to say here? I hope writing will bring some semblance of catharsis. I never used to wear my feelings on my sleeve. I was a ROCK. Show no emotions- be hard! Having kids has changed that…and as time passes, that facade of being “tough” is fading with time. So, please bare with me, as I blog your ear off and share some of my innermost thoughts and questions for life. Oh ya, the podcast will show up here too!!

Stay tuned…recording more episodes…being DEFIANT….
