064 – The Vortex of Avoidance
In my last post, I spoke of my layoff. If I had to be let go, the timing was perfect. I was about to head into my final weekend of coach training. From there I was set to go on…
063 – The Layoff
I’m officially unemployed. I’ve never said those words for more than a few days since I was 16 years old and now, I find myself without a job. Strangely, it’s ok. The past year has been turbulent for me. The…

I need a fucking therapist. Why is this so hard? I’ve tried and tried and tried and no one is available to help me. I’m finally ready and there is no one to answer the call. I’m likely not the…
047 – Necessary Regrets…
I’m back here again, back at the place of debilitating burnout that I experienced last year. Well, that didn’t take long. I thought I was better. I thought the trip to Costa Rica would be the cure, I thought being…
