Damn, Why Can't I Just Be Good
I talk a lot about trauma healing. What trauma am I healing? It's a story with many chapters. For this post I'll be focusing on my early childhood. When we learn love and safety.

We In Colorado, Yo
I can't believe we've already been here for a month. The time has flown by and it's been exciting and challenging. Acclimating to so many things at once has proven to be physically and emotionally exhausting. Going from a 1,000 ish square feet to around 200 ish is an interesting adjustment.
