As a dual Addict with Bipolar Disorder and childhood trauma, I spent many years ignoring and numbing my feelings, and drowning out my authentic inner voice with a cacophony of hateful, lying, and shaming thoughts.
This led to excruciating mental, emotional, spiritual, financial, and physical pain for others and for myself.
Years of therapy, 12 Step spirituality, and hard work reconnected me with my authentic self.
Today my gut feelings are guardian angels, and they are one of the manifestations of the Higher Power of my understanding.
