Bio
I'm an almost-40 mother. I worked in the science / technology industry as a consultant and employer. I was diagnosed with PTSD at 34 and that helped me to make a lot of important changes in my life - learning emotional regulation skills, having a better relationship with my baby (at the time), stopping drinking (mostly), doing self-care things, setting strong boundaries with abusers, communicating without conflict. All these things are skills I deserved to have learned as a child and without them, my early adulthood was very rocky. I believe that if I can (finally) feel successful in implementing them and leading an easier way of life as an adult, then you can, too.
I have a lot of experience dealing with career, workplace and business issues; parenting; difficult relationships; and 'going broke,' plus what it's like to grow all the way up past the 'adulting' stage. Life is hard and it's not always clear what the answer is supposed to be, but I'm here to help you figure that out and try new things.

A good listener and helpful
Went trough 7 listeners, and glad I kept my faith, because I ended up with her. A really good listener and definitely made me feel better about the situation I was thrown in. Ask the right questions, which just make you almost stand back and look at it from a different view point. Cannot recommend enough!
