At 14, I stood up to the biggest bully I had ever known to protect my mom and my brother.
That moment shaped everything that came after.
Today, I do the same thing for my clients. I’ll walk into the fight so they don’t have to face it alone. If this resonated with you, comment with a ❤️
Are they stalking you through your airpods? I’ve seen it in court cases, and I’ve experienced it myself. Stay vigilant and stay safe

Maybe the problem isn’t masculinity or femininity. Maybe it’s the loss of partnership. Real relationships require two people willing to work together, not compete over roles. Full conversation dropped TODAY!🎙️

We are attempting to define masculinity when we really need to be living out masculinity…Steve gives us 4 principles that left us speechless:
When a man understands his identity
When a man is willing to engage in community
When a man is willing to give himself to accountability

The third phase of narcissistic grooming is what I’m calling “boundary erosion.” I am pulling examples from my own experience because I know that these examples will hit home for many of you who have experienced (or are in) a narcissistic relationship. I’m thankful to be where I am today, the journey I was on for 24 years brought me here. I am removed from the person I used to be, who held these words too close to the chest, and I am hoping this series and my sharing this sets you free too.
Don’t forget: May is mental health awareness month! In honor of this, a whole new episode of lovelustlaw dropped on Monday with feature guest Liz Gabriel, who shares her wisdom on the sacrifices and resilience it takes to live a joyful life in spite of the pain of debilitating mental illness.
