The Soul and the Subconscious/Conscious Mind
It is crazy but I have this theory or this belief if you call it, that we are all souls/energies in a physical form. But the secret to you truly living, living out your real and honest desires, becoming your greatest version, is to become at one with who you are! The first step is identifying that you are a soul in a physical form. Souls in a physical form you say...

Autism: Women and the Struggle for Diagnosis
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex developmental disability; signs typically appear during early childhood and affect a person’s ability to communicate and interact with others. ASD is defined by a certain set of behaviors and is a “spectrum condition” that affects individuals differently and to varying degrees. 1 out of every 68 children has been identified as being on the spectrum.

Are You Your Own Worst Enemy?
The Southeast Bully is the part of our inner self that acts as a bully to our own soul. This bully uses dependency, attachment, judgment, comparison, expectation, self-importance, and the wounded child we experienced when our image makers made us feel unworthy of love to manipulate us. These emotions can stop us from following our Sacred Dream and fulfilling the plans our soul made for us in this life.

Helicopter Parent
Today, I want to talk about the label “Helicopter Parent.” It is a label that I cannot stand, but I will wear with pride. It is used a lot, when school staffers discuss ASD parents, who are in constant contact, requesting modifications, updates, meetings and accommodations for their children.

The Disabled Girl
Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Nia. Nia was born with special powers known as "disabilities" which no one seemed to accept and/or understand. Therefore, poor Nia decided to keep these powers bottled up which took so much effort that she barely spoke for the first 16 years of her life. Children in school spared no mercy, calling her weird, annoying, a crybaby, and wouldn't let her join in with any fun games they would play. This made Nia very sad and continued throughout school. Then she was transported to a magical kingdom called "college" where she met lots of lovely friends who made her feel like she belonged. However, she was still trying to keep her powers contained which proved harder and harder to do. It got to the point where she tried to kill herself, the effort was so much.

Serial Love
Why is it now that everything I have been seeing is a lie? What did I have wrong with me that lead me to believe that the people around me did not exist? My brother called it schizophrenia, a mental disorder involving a breakdown in the relation between thought, emotion and behavior, leading to faulty perception, inappropriate actions and feelings, withdrawal from reality and personal relationships into fantasy and delusion, and a sense of mental fragmentation. When he told me that from everything he has heard me say about my lover, that he didn't like him and wanted to meet him to make sure everything was okay.

Void
Passion exists only to those with a pre-existing ember, smouldering in their core. One of two things can happen: The overbearing weight of our existential impossibility can smother it; or the spiteful fuck you of humanity rings out, daring the weight of everything to come crashing down because who fucking cares? It's this reckless abandon and the acceptance that our fleeting existence is the most meaning we will ever glean from the labyrinth of a universe we live in that allows us to displace that search for meaning and go after what makes the good times good and the bad times less bad.

"All Women Experience Dysphoria"
To begin with I have to deliver you a very unfriendly, ugly, in-your-face reminder that the LGBTQ+ community is not an accepting place when you are anything other than homosexual. If you're bisexual you're told you don't exist. If you're pansexual you're told you just want to feel like a "special snowflake". If you're asexual you're told that you just haven't found "the one". But god forbid you are transgender. That's a whole other ballgame.
