Author bio

I am a lover of words, talking, writing, reading and discovering. I am the mom to 3 amazing kids with special needs, am incredibly lucky to have a supportive spouse, friends and family who help support my mental health and wellbeing, even when I am unwilling to. I live with bipolar disorder and want to share the realities both good and bad with others to help remove the stigmas surrounding mental illness.
