PMDD – Premenstrual dysphoric disorder – teenage years For many years, since puberty if I’m honest, the ‘time of the month’ has never been easy for me. If you created a list of every PMS symptom that a woman gets related to our hormonal cycle, then I could check all them – oh, except for [...]
Peace from Broken Pieces and the way my mind works I was fortunate enough to read this book around Christmas time – Peace from broken Pieces by Iyanla Vanzant.

I read it…get a BIG result…get scared…put it down for a while and then when I’m finally ready to swallow the contents, pick it up again. This definitely happened [...]
