When the new year hits, people carry energized spirits about new goals they have set for completion. A popular quote yelled by many is, " NEW YEAR, NEW ME". Everyone is excited to introduce the version of themselves they have transformed into or the person they wish to become. 

This year I woke up on January 1st, mad that I was still breathing. New year, New ME didn't want to be alive anymore. After hosting multiple events, creating a podcast, becoming very fit & active in the gym, and starting my non-profit to help us, one would think I would be hitting a catwalk proud of multiple accomplishments after being released from prison. Negative. Two days before the new years, I spent hours into the am on the phone with a friend having to remind me that allowing my mother to find me in her house no longer living wasn't the answer.

After praying for freedom for almost five years and finally gaining it, there are many days I feel far from free. Re-entry back into society is a hard transition, but I have to fight to change the assistance we receive because there is no way I am the only one having bad days. 

We have reached the point of story telling where you are at the most current point of my life, but there are so many other stories to tell & more insight to provide. Season 1 is ending, but my life isn't yet. I have work to do & Season 2 is coming soon.
