I am ,,,

I am a Retired Army Combat Veteran, Military Spouse of over 22 years and mom to a high school junior and college sophomore.

I am also a service connected disabled veteran. I live with a mental illness that not many knew about until I started sharing my story.

I am an advocate, mentor, blogger, coach and speaker. I am a survivor and fighter and help others do the same.

You are not alone and you are not like most girls or boys, women and men.

You are friggin amazing!

Always listen to your own voice and your own heart. Never let anyone take that away from you. #veteran #mentalillness #mentalhealthadvocate #endthestigma #mentalhealthawareness #mentor #militaryspouse #coach #blogger #speaker #awildridecalledlife #veteransstoryproject
