The Olive Tale
Sober living is possible! It's never too late to change your life. You already have it inside you. You can do this! Milne
"Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem & smarter than you think." - A.A. I hope that my sober life can influence you to either become sober or stay on the path of sobriety!

I can officially tell all you little cats & kittens that I was offered a wonderful position yesterday & I accepted with flying colors! I am Mario J Zappia Attorney at Law's new legal administrative assistant & there's a story there... He was my mom's lawyer when she divorced my dad in the late 90s. If you know about that situation then you know how awful it was. Mario was there for my mom in her darkest hour. In her time of need, she really felt like he was in her corner fighting for her when she felt like she had no fight left in her. I have the utmost respect for him and it's an honor to be working alongside him. I know I have big shoes to fill but Jessica, you can trust me when I say that I am already invested, like a full circle moment & he is in good hands. Starting Monday so I'm going to relax the rest of the weekend to prepare myself for the crash course in all things law office! I'm soooo ready!
Also, if you are in an environment that feels unsafe, you always have a choice... to leave, to report things, to reach out to me here. You are not alone. You deserve all the good things life has to offer so don't settle, Babes. 💚
