I don’t know what was putting me off and out my zone more, the headboard hitting the wall or his loud mouth.

“Shit, we’ve been social distancing.” -Career Moms
It’s nothing new to me. I mean at one point I was getting together with one of my best college buddies for cocktails.

F*ck him, how is that for therapy? #parentingwithanincarceratedparent
Hey Mamas, I started therapy a year ago. In secret. I didn’t want my family to judge me. I didn’t grow up on therapy, I grew up on prayer. To be honest, it was surface level at first. I didn’t truly want to step out of my comfort zone because, “I’m strong”. As a matterContinue reading “F*ck him, how is that for therapy? #parentingwithanincarceratedparent”
