Bring It On

Is it inappropriate to talk about snot & sleepwalking on a podcast? HA! Oh well. Our GAF meters broke a long time ago. Enjoy!

Several months ago Alex's PlayStation got boxed up & put away for the rest of the school year. And things have been going better because of it. His attitude has improved, his grades are finally improving & he's a nice kid to be around now. A few days ago I commented on an IG post that info & wow, the response was way more than I anticipated it would be. Mostly good & in agreement/similar struggles....obviously a few haters, whatever. So today I wanted to talk about this topic some. 

I also mentioned the My Ascension documentary showing this week at some places so here's the link for the showings. 

March is National Down Syndrome Awareness month. Who better to talk about personal experiences with Down Syndrome than my mom. My younger brother Curtis was born in 1982 with Down Syndrome & a defective heart. He was one of the youngest people to ever have open heart surgery. I learned a whole lot experiencing Curtis first hand growing up. It literally changed my life. My sister Amie & I are pledged to put in 321 miles for the month of March. 3.21 is Down Syndrome Day. If you would like to donate, you can use this link. All money raised goes to supporting people with Down & educating people on Down Syndrome. So this holds a pretty special place in our hearts. I hope you enjoy the stories!

A little discussion about Impact on people & community today with my partner Danielle Schares. 

You ever have a thought that just nags at your brain? Like this picture in your head of something that you just can't shake? Is it the path or is it just ADD? Can anyone else relate? 

Kind of been in a life reflective frame of mind lately. The obstacle is the opportunity has been a theme for me for quite a while. Embrace the suck friends. 

Whew!! Wow what a day this has been! I had the opportunity to visit with my dear friend Mandy McCleary on her Facebook page for a live interview & it was SUCH an awesome chat!!! Y'all know I'm a huge people person & getting to chat with her about life, her wellness journey & the craziness of life was such a great experience. Of course we went twice as long as she normally does because I don't know how not to talk a lot....I know, you're shocked. HA! Go check out her page! She is the absolute sweetest person with such a fantastic message. She's been vlogging her journey for 171 weeks!!! That is some dedication!! I linked her FB page on her name or right here. 

So I'm nerding out a bit about some new audio equipment. I'm really wanting to add guests to my podcast & I don't want to feel like we're making out over 1 mic so with a little YouTube help, a referral from a friend & help from Guitar Center guys, I was able to get this setup set up! 

Some thoughts today on the process on reaching goals & the boring processes of making those happen. Following the plan & executing. 

My audio is straight freaking garbage so I apologize up front! But that cannot be my excuse to not show up. 2023 is here loud & proud & got got goals to crush. Let's go my friends!! Light your OWN fire & someone else's!

Man I really feel off my meds or something in this podcast....kidding, kinda....I'm not on any meds. But my brain is just like out in left field. WHAT! Driving the struggle bus with this injury & trying to stay outta my head about it but failing miserably. Also....here's the link to the FB group that my good friend Amy has, Simply Amy Boutique! You have to join the group to be able to see her stuff & I HIGHLY recommend it!
