Legendary Level Lore Drop Incoming
It's okay. Have a seat, relax, take a deep breath with me. In, out. That's good. I've done this a million times. I've got you. Come on this journey with me.
I was born in 1989, right when the world was about to change in big ways, bigger than they imagined could be true. My capacity for feral, exuberant, abundance was every bit as intense as the times I was born into. But I was born with a number of disadvantages....
- 01
I was born in a cult. Not just a sort of normal one, but an actual doomsday cult with apocalypse drills or “Great Tribulation Drills” as we called them.
- 02
My mom was severely bipolar as well as AuDHD. She was also unmedicated. One minute she was the coolest mom in the world and the next she was a blacked-out demon with no idea how much pain and terror she could inflict.
- 03
I grew up during “The Princess Diaries” and wore jeans from the 1980s and second-hand St John’s Bay polos. You can extrapolate the rest of that.
- 04
At age 27 I, a virgin cult devotee, ran away from home to finally have a life. I was shunned by my congregation and watched my Instagram follower count go from 2,500+ to 52 people in 12 hours as word of my shunning spread.
- 05
Age 29 I got married to a soon-to-be chronically unemployed, alcoholic wife beater who tried to cut my throat. It happens. We make mistakes. I bought a house. It happens. Again, we make choices that we later come to regret.
- 06
At 31 I left the marriage and finally left the cult for the last time after 2 years of back and forth. Oh and Covid. Almost forgot that.
- 07
Then I dated. Fun stuff. Good times. Love that for me. Sarcasm as thick as peanut butter around these parts lately.
- 08
In amongst that dating, I was a step-mom of sorts. Loved the baby like my own. Then the baby died in my arms, while I was home alone with it. Being investigated for murder when you’re grieving the loss of the only baby you ever got to raise, I wish that on no one. Ever. Period.
- 09
Finally went to college from age 32-35 with a one year gap to recoup my brain and energy. Graduated my Associate of Science in Business Administration with “Highest Honors”. Graduated with my dual BS in Digital Marketing and Business Development “Summa Cum Laude”.
- 10
I then proceeded to fuck off my life for two years for a lovely gentleman I thought I was marrying. But the embers of ambition never quite went out.
- 11
Then in 2025, on the cusp of my 36th birthday, he broke up with me. And I realized I was more relieved than sad. So I did the next logical thing....
Hey look at me, pausing here to rub your wrists and remind you to exhale....inhale...calming breath. You got this. Doing so good. Just a few more with me. And go!
- 12
I traveled the world, realized that I am still a sexual being but that that doesn’t mean I have to be extreme just to prove I’m ‘liberated’. I realized that I wasn’t using my free will, my whimsy, my fucking adult ass money! So I took my first international trip, a weekend trip to Seoul. Yes I’m crazy, you should know this by now, moving on. Then I did a two week retreat in Bali.
- 13
Then of course I realized that the life I was living was a life made out of “in stock” items rather than “Exclusive” items. So I sold everything, quit everything, bought an RV, lived in Seoul for a month (yes I went back). Then I lived in my RV in Myrtle Beach for a while.
And now I know exactly who I am, where I came from, what I adore about myself, what I want to level up, and what lessons I want to leave behind. I've developed a Core Values and Ethics system that I stick to even when doing so seems to serve against me.
I'm not here to be your guru. I'm just a little further along the same path, but I found a flashlight.
