    I Was Treated Like the Villain—But I Was the Victim
    To every woman living in addiction, abuse and judgement When my son died, I expected grief.I expected pain.What I didn’t expect was to be turned into the villain of my own tragedy. In 2010, I was a young mother trapped in violence, trapped in addiction, and trapped in a system that saw my struggles as proof that I didn’t deserve compassion. I was on felony probation.

    I should have left
    I Should Have Left I should have left.Early on.You know that moment — when something inside you shifts.

I had sex for the first time at 17. It was trash.It stayed trash for the next...

    What do I do now?
    What Do You Do Now? Navigating the Quiet After They’ve Flown I’m sitting here on my couch, in what I guess I’d call my part-time home now, with my two dogs for company. And I’ve found myself asking this huge, echoing question: What am I supposed to do now? For so long, my life revolved around my kids. They were everything—my end-all, be-all. And now they’re these amazing grown humans who have flown the coop. They barely respond to texts, they’ve got...
