My Story
I had a lot of jobs in life starting at the age of 14. I filled grocery bags, played the drums in an all-girl heavy metal thrash band, sold lottery tickets, got a Master’s degree in counseling psychology, worked in a psychiatric emergency room, led various non-profit events, and ran group therapy. I settled in corporate America as a Domestic Operations Manager for just shy of 20 years in a profession that had nothing to do with my degree, traveling the country in limousines, airplanes and did a lot of fine dining. Sounds important, right? Or dysfunctional, you pick.

You’ve done a really good job here writing out this promise to your mother, and I think people will really get out of it what you hope they will: the tools to help them in this kind of fraught time, and perhaps the gumption to fight and do things about it, like you and your family did.
