No One Does You Better Than You Do!

Very early in my life, I knew that there had to be something more to me than what people told me I was. A "Rebel", A "Liar", "Gullible", "Selfish" Promiscuous", "Defiant", "Sinner". None of these defining words sat well within my conscience. It didn't make sense and some of the words I didn't even understand what they meant. I did not feel as if I were any of these things. Why would someone want to label me behind such mean words??

Flashforward 10 or so years, I have raised 2 beautiful daughters who have great communication skills and wisdom far beyond what is expected at their age level. During this time in my life I went through many struggles, seeking acceptance and not feeling true to me in doing so, I was blessed to work with other families taking care of children, exposing them to experiences that debunked many views that society would have claimed to be the consequences of. Then I knew to further to progress in my transition I had to separate from an environment that would cause me to depend on. I took a chance, uprooted from California to Texas. With no family, no friends, and no idea what I was going to do. But that's where my finger landed on the map and that's where we went.

Since being in Texas, I was blessed repeatedly with many opportunities to work with young adults with mental health conditions in the non-profit sectors. From domestic violence, suicidal ideations to juvenile probation. I knew there was more to these defining identity roles. The thousands of hours in conversations I witnessed transformations far beyond what they initial meetings would have documented. I was involved with providing such beautiful uncertain creatures, who longed to have someone believe in the impossible becoming absolute.

Despite the many set backs thrown my way from peers who disapproved in my level of education, the results of my interactions and success stories continued to thrive. Each time I would be thrown a professional curveball a new opportunity to stay involved with the young people would present itself. Over time the stress of competitive colleagues wore down my efforts so I returned to school and started working odd jobs to provide for my family. All the while still receiving phone calls and texts from parents and past clients requesting to continue working with me.

I stand by a belief that we do not have to be subject to one way of being. That this life is destined to help each of us create the identity we were born to discover. That it is okay to make mistakes, change often, experience situations that may not be what society says is normal. I believe in accepting the so called mental health disorder labels with love but not allowing them to become a crutch and finalize the fortunate years left to build ourselves upon. And the philosophical concept of universal laws that my mission resides under is, "Reasons govern our emotions", "we are privileged to choose which reasons to create our process towards evolution."

These beliefs is where the creation of Evolve N2U, LLC came to be. For my 37th birthday my best friend paid for me to formulate my dream. Many of my closest friends consistently push me to write a book, start a business, host podcasts. So, the best gift I could have never asked for decided now was my time. My natural ability to connect with people on a close personable level. Regardless of age, race, or gender, was prepared to rise out of its cocoon. There is a gravitational pull towards oneness and openness when people interact with me. I long to operate with a willingness to stay honest, unbias, self-internalization angle and only wish to help guide others to live in a way that does not set one truth in stone but believes that effortlessly they will evolve into the human our souls sought out to become.
