When I was eight, I sat at the kitchen table molding clay into little people—one was rich, with a tall top hat and gold buttons, the other poor, with a chipped cup and no shoes. I gave the rich man a scowl and the poor man a kind smile. Even then, I had absorbed the message: money makes you cold, greedy, disconnected. My clay told the story I thought was true.
Decades later, after sitting across the table from billionaires, systems strategists, and spiritual seekers, I realized that narrative was never about the clay—or the money. It was about the meaning I gave it.
Absolutely, you could be justified in some of your beliefs about money—or love, for that matter. You have evidence. Some pretty disconnected people are doing some pretty incongruent (and even naughty) things with money. But here's the truth: that's not money’s fault...
Let’s talk about money. I’ve built in irony, comedy, and art. Enjoy these resources associated with wealth and bulding more of money, like creating with clay.

Grief and the Lonely Unicorn: The Power of Unlikely Connections I didn’t expect grief to arrive when I moved away from home at 17—it wasn’t about death, but about the quiet ache of disconnection from everything familiar. In chasing independence, I hadn’t realized I’d also be letting go of the small comforts that once grounded me—family dinners, familiar streets, the unspoken closeness of home. What I came to understand is that grief doesn’t only follow loss; it often follows growth, and learning to honor that truth helped me find peace in my becoming.
Exploring the delicate dance between loneliness, grief, and growth, these experiences invite us to honor the quiet ache of disconnection and find peace in our unfolding journey:

And More.
This journey isn't about fixing others—it's about seeing clearly, protecting your peace, and choosing love without losing yourself. Through observation, boundaries, and compassion, you can honor your truth, navigate complex relationships, and reclaim your power—one conscious step at a time.
I wrote the Scammed series to help you see what’s often hidden—to bring awareness to the truth behind the systems and relationships that quietly shape our lives. This journey isn’t about fixing others; it’s about observing clearly, setting boundaries with compassion, and staying rooted in your own truth—even when the world tries to pull you away from it.
Explore the tools that help you reclaim your clarity, strengthen your boundaries, and move forward with grounded confidence.
