What’s your Game?
Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you? Everyone needs an outlet that is fun. Remember playing pretend with your friends when you were small? That imagination and freedom to use it is a direct killer of stress and anxiety. For me I roll dice in table top games like D&D,…

Get out of my Way
What are your biggest challenges? By far my biggest challenge to anything I do is me. My own impulsive thoughts or my inability to make a decision. Can I do this? Am I good enough? That’s so silly. Because all of that happens in my head. I got this. I can do hard things. Light…

It’s the smells
What makes you feel nostalgic? Warm cookies just out of the oven. Cut grass. Thunder storms. Honeysuckle in full bloom. Fresh brewed coffee. My husband’s neck when we embrace. Salt water in the air. Baby snuggles. Texas heat. Yes it has a scent, so does a crisp cool spring day in Florida. So many smells.…

Unchanging Views
I can say that I have always fallen in the middle of conservatives and liberals. My political view is and has always been pro-human rights and freedom. Let people be who they are and let them vote for their values and beliefs. Speak the truth and it is up to each person to decide if…

What are your feelings about eating meat? I’m not a vegetarian. I like red meat.

Her doctors gave her 5 years to live with a newly diagnosed genetic disease and that was 7 years…

What is good about having a pet? Everything
I love my not dog. See she is really my husband’s dog, not my dog. What’s good about her? She keeps my husband happy. She wakes him up when his lung condition is making breathing difficult as he sleeps. She is fun to spend time with. She is love on four feet. All the good…

Working On Why
What have you been working on? I’ve been working on my impulse reactions to other humans’ behavior. I know that I can’t control what they do but I can control how I react. I can go from peaceful to crazy in nanoseconds depending on the situation and the person. Certain people doing certain things sets…

It’s a Fact
Do you see yourself as a leader? I am a leader. Not because of my career, though I have for years been in leadership positions. I’m a leader because a choose to mentor humans. Now just because someone thinks of themselves as a leader doesn’t mean they are a leader. You would have to ask…

Be Real
I see red when a human puts on a fake air. It is difficult to explain but you know it when you see it. They try too hard to come across as they think you want to see them. Often they say things that they think you want to hear instead of telling you the…
